The next class I’m teaching will be a gelli printing class at the Art Hub in Cambridge, WI on October 10th from 1-4. You can register here. The address is 145 W. Main and cost is $83. This may be the most fun class I have ever taught. It’s going to be a challenge to keep it to 3 hours because there is so much I want to share about this relaxing and exciting technique. I will also share some examples of what I use my prints for because it is easy to generate a lot of them!

It seems like I have been really busy for a long time! I do have quite a lot to show for it. The collage packs that I am selling at the Art Hub in Cambridge are selling well and I have been using some of the paper sets to create art that more obviously includes them. Here is a selection of my new work.

This month I have been relaxing into my art journal some more. It started out with working out timing and materials for my art journaling class I taught and I enjoyed it so much I have been doing more of it. My classes this fall include some gelli printing and I have been doing a lot of practicing. My art journal is a great place to keep samples from my experiments. I also created the simple piece of a silhouette looking at a piece of art both cut from a print pictured above. I’m including photos from the art journaling class which was small but enthusiastic.

I currently have art on exhibit at the Art Hub in Cambridge, as part of a group exhibit with the Wisconsin Visual Artists at UW Madison Hospital and at Monroe Street Dental office on Monroe Street. The exhibit at the dentist’s office will be up until Feb. 2027 and I will be there for gallery night on November 6. I have also learned that the pieces that were purchased by UW Hospital are in a new wing at the East Hospital location as part of their permanent collection.

This piece has come home from the Association of Wisconsin Artists statewide exhibit at the Pyle Center and I won the Antigo Visual Arts Accolade. Prints and cards of this piece are for sale at Madison Art Market on Odana Road and are selling very well. It is one of my favorite pieces.

Don’t forget to vote! Let’s keep democracy alive!

I will be teaching at the Art Hub in Cambridge, WI again this fall! It is such a wonderful space and Jacy, the owner, is great to work with. This fall I will be focusing on exploring mixed media with different projects AND I will be teaching a GELLI Printing Class!!! I’m so excited. It is one of my favorite things to teach and I have so many techniques that I’m excited to share. All of the mixed media classes will use gelli prints and two of them will have some basic gelli printing techniques included. Register for any of the classes here. The cost for the classes are either $83 or $85, with the note cards and canvas classes being slightly more expensive.

Registration deadline: SATURDAY OCT 5 at Art Hub

Create your own floral collage! This class is an introduction to gelli printing and mixed media collage. It is for both beginning and intermediate artists. In this class we will use acrylic paint and a gelli plate to paint a variety of papers to use in a 5×7 collage. Gelli printing is a fun and easy process that creates unexpected combinations of color and texture. It is somewhat unpredictable, and you are sure to get some papers you can use in your collage. There will be a selection of papers for you to print on (ie. maps, book pages, old sheet music). Lace will be used to make papers that look like tablecloths and stencils and other patterning tools will be used to make papers that look like wallpaper. We will use some of my carved blocks to stamp leaves and flowers on some of the papers and cut simple shapes for a table, wall and vase. After we cut out the flowers and leaves, we will play around with different paper and color combinations for the collage. Then we glue it all together. You will take home a matted 5×7 still life that is ready for an 8×10 frame.
