Studio time with mosaic projects all around! 

Amazing watercolor paintings being made by mostly beginners with the talented Suzanne Dangerman teaching. 

 Super fun sign painting class with amazing artist and teacher, Charis Moblo!

 Our talented and versatile artist and teacher, Julie Sullivan is at it again, having perfected her sculpture armature process for mosaic (class to come in the future schedule). This is her gorgeous mosaic koi pond table top. 

 Here are two amazing artists working on terra-cotta bases for birdbaths in the garden.

This is a mosaic/mixed media piece I created for a mosaic auction for Doctors without Borders. It is called "A Time For Peace". It says: "I will write peace on your wings and you will fly all over the world." ~Sadako Sasaki
and on the back side is a mosaic rendering of the tardis time machine from the "Dr. Who" series.
