Our Summer School 2013 consists of 3 great workshops. Each workshop contains multiple projects, video lessons, project photos, written instructions, linework, downloads, reference materials and more…
Our main focus is to create a fun, comfortable learning environment that is packed with visual aids, ideas and seeds of creativity.
The 3 workshops for this summer school are:
Laurie’s Summer Painted Mix - Opening Day June 24
Explore the excitement people are having with combining painted projects with tools and techniques of other mediums. We will cover using stamps, stencils and assorted household items to create outstanding backgrounds and areas of interest in your project. We will combine decoupage into our projects and learn all kinds of functions for it. If you have heard the term of “Mixed Media” you will see how it relates to paint. There will be 5 fun projects plus lots of extra ideas to try.
Christmas in July 2013 - Opening Day July 8
The workshop covers new ideas for the upcoming Christmas season. There will be 5 projects. We will be working with snowmen, Santa, gingerbread, holly and vines and holiday lettering. There is great information and ideas for crafters and people wanting new projects to paint for the upcoming holidays.
Paint and Doodle Too - Opening Day July 22
Laurie has been a “doodler” all her life. With the popularity of the “Zen” style of doodling, it is exciting to add our own style of doodling skills to our painted projects. Doodling consists of the use of repetitive patterns and linework. We will learn to “doodle” with both paint and ink. We will use various brushes and pens. Learn how to include the use of stencils to enhance your projects. There will be lots of practice exercises and project ideas galore.

Creative Coach University - Spring 2013
We have some great blog sharing for you today. Walnut Hollow is featuring some of our work from this spring's session of Creative Coach University. They have been a great supporter to us over the years and offer a great product line. Check out their blog...www.walnuthollowcrafts.wordpress.com
See more about these projects and more....
See more about these projects and more....
We are asked so often exactly what is Creative U all about. I think we have put together some great information in visuals to tell some of the story. Students will often take their projects home to finish, redo or try again. They experiment and try lots of new things, they build a new foundation to put their painting on. They learn to create on their own terms. I am in awe at what they come up with. To find out more about CCU and upcoming activities go to http://www.lauriespeltz.com/store/WsPages.asp?ID=19
Congratulations to the Spring Class of 2013. Look for some of the participants also being featured in upcoming Artist Club catalogs with their work.
