I love to teach and have been teaching in all kinds of settings for years. Yesterday was a whirlwind of creative teaching that I thought you\u2019d love to hear about. I teach art 3 days a week at my local elementary school to preK-2nd<\/sup> grade. Yesterday I did monoprints with 2nd<\/sup> graders. All you have to do is look at the picture to see the joy, excitement and pride they had in their creations. They were amazed that I was letting them paint on the table then they simply drew with q-tips to make a design, lay down the paper, rub and voila it was like magic, such exuberance and surprise and awe all packed into a 50 minute class.<\/p>\n

\"2nd<\/a>

When the school bell rang at 2:30 I dashed back The Bishop\u2019s Ranch retreat and conference center where I\u2019m the Resident Artist. As part of my duties groups can request an art workshop during their stay, so yesterday afternoon I donned my art teacher apron again this time with a group of women who have been friends for over 50 years and met in Jr. High if you can believe it! They were so full of fun and ready to try something new. I lead them in a Georgia O\u2019keefee style flower painting class inspired by the flowers found at the Ranch.<\/p>\n

\"Women's<\/a>

Both these groups were thrilled to be creating and making art, I get a lot from helping people open up their creative side, young and old benefit from the experience. In October I get to dive deeper into the creative process at the CREATE SEATTLE conference. The great thing about teaching at a Create conference is everyone there is so open and excited about learning new techniques. The 6-hour classes give lots of time to explore and get immersed in something new and exciting. I can\u2019t wait to mix it up with my students during the Light up Your Life Little Luminaria class on Friday 10\/24, the possibilities with these materials is spectacular and everyone with leave with at least 4 luminaria and the skills to take home a whole new way to brighten up their world – especially relevant with the holidays coming!<\/p>\n

I\u2019m also happy to share an artist tool that is under used so far\u2026.the iPad. On Saturday 10\/25 I\u2019ll be introducing participants to their iPad as art tool. The 6 hour class will dive deep into the Brushes 3 app that has so much potential. Everyone will leave with a knowledge of all the potential of this app and I\u2019ll walk you through creating a digital collage like this one! Ps this is the app David Hockney used for much of his work in his recent SF and NYC shows.<\/em><\/p>\n

Saturday evening 10\/25 I get to share another favorite art app called Art Rage. This 3 hour class focuses on the watercolor tools. I\u2019ll lead you in creating a water color still life using only your iPad. I took an online watercolor class from one of my favorite teachers Jane LaFazio and instead of actual watercolors I used my iPad and the Art Rage app. I loved the results and I can\u2019t wait to share what I\u2019ve discoved with you.<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

I\u2019m really looking forward to meeting you and having the time and space to create with you at CREATE SEATTLE coming up soon! Sign up for the Seattle classes here\u00a0 http:\/\/seattle.createmixedmediaretreat.com\/ehome\/87874\/artistinstructors\/?&#T<\/a><\/p>\n
