2015 Classes


Since closing my retail shop in early 2013, I have had more time to take my show on the road. And you know what, I have really enjoyed it!!! Since my kids are grown, husband is retired, and the cat is fairly self sufficient, I'm not needed at home like I was years ago (although I do hope they still miss me).

In  addition to classes in my own studio, here's where I taught in 2014;
  • Feruary - Tucson, AZ for Jewelry Tools
  • March -  Mechanicsburg, PA for Charmed I'm Sure Studio
  • April - Portland, OR for Art & Soul Retreats
  • April - Philadelphia, PA for Bead Fest
  • May - Knoxville, TN for Jewel School
  • June - Milwaukee, WI for Bead & Button
  • July - Chautauqua, NY for The Chautauqua Institute
  • August - Salt Lake City, UT video for Wire Sculpture
  • August - Philadelphia, PA for Bead Fest
  • September - Washington DC for Burkes Gems & Beads

My First Large Scale Copper Flame Painting

Normally I work in a much smaller scale, as in jewelry size scale. But having discovered the organic beauty of painting with fire on copper, it seemed to cry out for a larger canvas. So here is my first attempt. I hope my sister likes it, because it's going to be her Christmas present!
