Course Description: The Gift of the Present
Art will bring you to a different place every time
Art will bring you to a different place every time.
Today’s world can be a lot to take. I know you understand what I mean.
In The Gift of the Present, I want you to step back and make some time for yourself and make space where you can express some of your deepest thoughts, get them out on the page as you make a beautiful, meaningful piece of art.
I will share with you how to create a work of heart and soul, filled with mystery that captures the essence of what you want to manifest in your life or things for which you are grateful.
During our mixed media journey together, you will learn to layer color and patterns, the push-pull of resists, and especially, where you are in this moment as an artist.

Read MoreThis course by Mary Beth Shaw was very helpful and I really liked it because it was a easy mixed media class. There is so much that we can do in mixed media and it can get confusing and overwhelming as to what to use and how to use the many supplies we have on hand. I loved that Mary Beth takes this nice and easy step by step that anyone with basic mixed media materials can do. There is collage, painting, use of mark making, and use of stencils (of course) LOL. Also I really like it when instructors tell you what they are thinking and Mary Beth does not hold back on why she does this or that technique. This is a good course to take for people new to mixed media.
