Join Kristin in a mixed media papery menagerie. In this two-day class, we will be making zine-type books full of color, stitching, drips, art marks, folds, and creativity—paper pockets full of goodness! Our zine pages will be filled with exploratory drips and dribbles, stenciled or stamped, sewn fabric bits, art marks, collage, found words, ribbony sashes, and pieces of everyday magic. Let’s do our own storytelling in these little books. As we make our zines and fill the pockets, we will explore composition and the visual appeal, while having a mindful conversation about color. This class is suitable for all experience levels, as we will walk on the side of permission. Material Fee includes: XL paper, stencils, stamps, sewing machines, fabric dyes, pieces of rubber block for carving stamps, possibly cyanotype depending on weather.

Join Kristin Peterson on a mixed media canvas patchwork exploration. In this one day class, we will be playing with various substrates. Fabric, paper, canvas. Glue, stitches, color. There is permission to mix textures and share layers with our own sense of style while being mindful of our overall composition. We will find our own art marks. Pencils, pens, crayons, inks, sprays… Our pieces will embrace the creative magic as we leave that inner critic at the door. So bring along your curiosity and sense of wonderment. This class is suitable for all experience levels, as we will walk on the side of permission.
