Upcoming Classes

Its been a super busy month and I'm excited to announce some upcoming workshops...I'll be teaching for the first time at Press: Works On Paper in San Francisco.

Join me at Press for Shadow Boxing Fun Wednesday evening October 26th. For more details and to register for the class, check out the class listing.

I'll also be teaching an Image Transfer process class at Saffron & Genevieve Friday Oct 28th. If you haven't been to this delightful shop, you're in for a treat. Scarlett serves champagne and chocolate for workshops and we get to create art in one of the most inspiring design studios anywhere. Find out the details and sign up here... only 2 spots left.

And finally, I have a whole new series of classes for San Francisco Center for the Book's next schedule. I'll fill you in on the details soon, but for now, I'll be teaching an Image Transfer class this week on Friday, October 21st.
