Sketchbook Sunday: Portraits with Meri Adelman

Last night I participated in a portrait drawing workshop called "Facing Ourselves" with artist Meri Adelman. It's part of the Women's Creativity Nights series of workshops at Six Senses Clay Studio (I'm offering white line printmaking February 3rd). There were five of us there. Meri took 4 minutes to draw each participant (and later I drew Meri), and then we took turns using oil pastels to fill in the drawings with color and patterns. Unfortunately I hadn't brought my camera, so I only have this photograph of the portrait of me. But they were all stunning and fun to make.

Tuesday and Sunday Classes for Kids at Six Senses Clay Studio

Starting this Sunday, September 20 I'm teaching classes for children at the Six Senses Clay Studio in the Mount Airy neighborhood of Philadelphia.

On Sundays from 3-4:30 I'll be teaching a clay class for children of all ages. The emphasis will be learning basic hand-building techniques through a series of fun and creative projects.

Six Senses also runs an after school art program from 3:30-5:30 that teaches not only clay, but a variety of media from basket weaving to painting. Now throw printmaking into the mix because I'm teaching the Tuesday class this fall!
