CHA...getting my craft on!

Well, no sooner am I back from a flurry of trips abroad doing numerous conferences, shows, demos and workshops, than it's time to start planning for the next series.  Once I get in the rhythm of being home again, and having proper sleeps, I'll start getting excited!  Looking forward though to the next couple of months, when the plan is to not do a whole heck of a lot besides be in the studio, and be in home mode.

Coming up on the last weekend of January 2011, I'll be in L.A. at the CHA winter trade show and convention, giving a couple of workshops.  Check out "What a Relief!" and "Acrylic Impressions", taking place Friday, January 28th, 2011.

Get ready to get your crafty with Tri-Art liquid acrylics and mediums! We're going to make some beautiful art together!

Are you nervous about entering the Fine Art arena? Julie Bergmann will lead you from the functional to the fine in her first CHA workshop, "Bridging the Gap between Craft & Fine Art", on Friday, January 28th, 2011.

Registration is on now at the CHA website, classes fill quickly, so get your name on the list ASAP!!!

Next up....Austin, TX

For my first time in Texas, I'm excited to be attending the Texas Art Teachers Association conference in Austin.  I hear great things about the city, and I'm keen to check it out!  Might even have to get me a pair of boots, and certainly going to be tasting some barbecue!

I will be teaching two workshops this time around, Rheotech: Acrylic Beauty on a Budget with an Eye to the Planet and Art Noise & Solucryl: The Omnipotent Academic Acrylics.

Also look for us in the Jack Richeson & Co. booth on the exhibit floor, where we will be inviting you to create some fabulous and colorific paintings with us!
