February is altered art month

you ask...we listen..and deliver!
so many of you love the arts & scraps altered art style and have asked us to share our designs and techniques in workshop formats. We have offered a variety of altered art classes in the past...but for the month of February we are going all out!!
all month long we are offering altered, collage style art workshops.


the first altered art class we would like tell you about is our mini art shrine class....
mini art shrines are super fun to craft and share!
take a peek at a few interpretations of the art shrine medium.























**(please note- these photos are not an actual class model, rather a sampling of the shrine art medium)

workshop details:
2/21- 11:30 to 2:00. . . diminutive art shrines…these little works of art are so fun to create and even more fun to share! You will need to gather photos of you, family and/or friends (vintage images work nicely...be sure to shrink down in size and print in black and white or sepia tones) also bring small trinkets, scraps, bits and pieces to use to decorate your shrine. (this is a must, not optional!!) we will construct a mini shadowboxish piece of art using many collage, layering and aging techniques. Check out this link for sample pics to get a true idea of how cool these projects are! Cost for this workshop: $30.00.
