Halloween Bowl
with Suzanne Mikulka, CDA
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.
- Turpinoid Natural by Martin Weber
- Any Krylon product
Acrylic
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!
