"Boho Grunge" Online Mixed Media Workshop
My first online class, "Boho Grunge," is now available from StencilGirl Studio! In this course, we'll walk through the creation of a mixed media panel in my signature Boho Grunge style from start to finish. This was not a pre-planned project, so you get to see my organic process! I'll show you everything from how I created the background and integrated my collage layers to stenciling techniques, selecting elements and assembling the focal point, and even how I make different metals look the same and add a faux-rust effect. You can check out the intro videos for free, or register now and jump right in. I hope you'll join me! |
I've also created a new Boho Grunge Mixed Media Artwork group on Facebook for anyone who's in class and wants to share and / or ask questions, or for anyone using my stencils and shop supplies, or really... anyone who just wants to come share and hang out!

I'm excited to share that I'm an instructor in a new year-long art retreat from Mystic Springs Studio called "Art Walk Alchemy." The theme for the year is going to be focused on totems and talismans — those ideas, objects, and emblems that represent something significant in our lives.
Each month you'll receive two lessons - each with at least 1-1/2 hours of video, from two different professional artists... 24 in total! There's a diverse and amazing group of artist mentors joining us this year, and I'm thrilled to be a part of it. You can learn more about my class and the project we'll be making in the video to the right. My workshop is over 120 minutes of tightly edited instruction where we'll make this fabulous Spirit-Totem doll. For just $99 (early bird price good through 12/31/18,) you get all 24 downloadable art lessons plus a creative community, supply lists and early access to some course packs, plus downloads and freebies throughout the year. There's even a payment plan to make it a bit more budget friendly. Head on over to Mystic Springs Studios to get more details and register for the class! |

Class Testimonials
|
Gwen's classes are so well planned. Her class projects are structured to maximize the the time in class as she incorporates multiple techniques, the proper use of tools, and detailed product information. I always have fun in her classes and leave with a wealth of information. She is a great person and extremely talented artist. |
Gwen's style and flair for the exotic always makes for an exciting class... a fusion of Bohemian & Asian with a gilded finale, her art is filled with echos of her travels. Gwen is happy to share her tips, tricks and techniques with all her students. You will leave class inspired! |
