New On-Line Class

Last week, I read in Linda's blog that she had begun an online class. Always curious, I checked it out.
Wow.
The next thing I knew, my fingers were flying over the keyboard to sign up as well.
This will link you over to her blog and shop and list of classes. Christy is fun, funny, full of spunk and has creativity galore to share!
I signed up for the She Art workshop, and as soon as I listened and watched the first week of videos, I went to work.


The  concept of layering is difficult for me. Christy has no fear in layering and it's very freeing to watch her work.
Stamps, paper, paint, molding paste, newsprint, sewing patterns, rub-ons, you name it, she puts in on the canvas.


I'm one that has never been much into dolls, so the concept of cutting out a "doll" figure had my feathers up from the start. I decided I'd just cut out my own image and go from there.


After giving it some thought, I decided to go the whole distance with the class to see what would happen.


I kinda liked it!


Have a happy Monday~

  1. Lynn, your page is AWEsome! Looks like you're having a ton of fun exploring, and that's what art's all about! It's nice to end my blogging break with a visit to see what you've been up to, and I'm not disappointed! Hugs, Terri xoxox

  2. That is amazing Lynn! You are so beyond talented and it looks like something you would see in a gallery and also something that makes someone completely lacking in artistic skills like myself totally jealous! :-) Good for you for starting something new and seeing where it takes you!
