Art Collective

JULY ​Wednesday, 7/10 from 6 – 9 pm $45 per person AUGUST ​Wednesday, 8/14 from 6 – 9 pm $45 per person ​Join me after the shop closes for a workshop on techniques to manipulate alcohol inks on a special paper. Your eyes will be delighted by the way these translucent inks flow when you drip, blow, splat and move them around on a polypropylene paper. You will oooh and ahhh over each technique you learn. While this is a technique class, you will leave with inks of your own and some drawings/paintings that you’ll love. Supplies provided: Yupo paper, set of 3 Ranger brand alcohol inks, a spritzer with gold Pinata alcohol ink and a variety of tools to use. What you might want to bring: Maybe an apron. I have a limited number of aprons for use on a first come first serve basis. If you already own alcohol inks, you might bring them to use, but it’s not necessary for this class. Space is limited to 8 students, so reserve your spot today by sending an email to: fun@chelseasparks.com.

Sarah Norris of PiHole Designs had her first class sell out,so if you’re looking for some fun, fringy earrings to go with your summer outfits, shaggy beaded earrings are just the ticket. In this workshop, we’ll be using jump rings and seed beads to create two pairs of earrings. You can mix various color beads for a rainbow effect or go with a monochromatic palette to create your one-of-a-kind accessory. All the supplies are provided: All jump rings, 6/0 beads, and ear wires needed to create two pairs of earrings. What you might want to bring: Supplies are provided, but if you have chain-nose or bent-nose pliers, please bring them. If you have some 6/0 seed beads that you’ve been wanting to use, go ahead and bring them, but if not Sarah has you covered. Space is limited, so reserve your spot today by sending an email asking for availability to: fun@chelseasparks.com
