📢 NEW WORKSHOP ALERT! 📢 Join instructor Mary Alice Braukman for a 4-day workshop where you'll explore mixed media, ask yourself "What If" and find freedom of expression 🎨

If you are stuck, this workshop will open up a freedom and a new direction in your work. You will be encouraged to find your own personal path. When you see that blank paper, canvas or board and you ask yourself “where do I begin?”, you will start to see design and color all around you in the most unexpected places. You will have a new starting point!
