"Way ta go Fonzie". Well, time to check out February's classes. Remember, if the times or dates are not convenient for you...give me a call.

| Thursday Feb. 3rd.....6 pm $15.00 Painting with Clay (No Paint) Limited to 8 students. Create an actual 3D painting on 'glass' using clay instead of paint. The pasta machine makes the background sunset quite easy, but you will need some muscles to crank that machine. Create trees, animals, whatever you like. Let your imagination take over. I'll give you lots of tips for your projects. Nicole R. will recognize the scene in my picture. We painted the same scene, on paper, last week. |
