Student Artist highly allergic!

Due to a student artist with a serious allergy to certain painting products, we are asking that you refrain from bringing these with you into the classroom.

A great place to keep the Halloween treats for the tricksters who come to your door, this bowl shows a lot of motion. You can almost feel the fall winds blowing.

Another surface idea would to apply this design to a canvas floor cloth.


Surfaces can be ANY size because you will freehand much of the design, but the larger the piece, the better. Suzanne likes a large clay saucer - perfect for holding goodies!!

Suzanne Mikulka will teach this project.

GUESTS ARE WELCOME!
