Details coming...

Heather Campbell comes to Albuquerque!!

Heather Campbell came to Albuquerque on April 24-25 to teach her Pastiche Workshop. We started off on Saturday with a "warm-up" doing Pinch, Pull, Puff Flowers and Leaves. Take a look at this months PolymerCafe Magazine...Her gorgeous flower necklace and technique is the featured piece. This is what we did, and the results were fantastic! What a blast that was! After lunch, we moved on to freestyle scroll pendants, where we just allowed our imaginations to run wild and free. Afterward, most of us went to dinner and had a great time eating and gabbing.

On Sunday, we continued on using the techniques we learned on Saturday, to create very cool pieces using transfers, molds, colors, patterns, textures and dimension...basically just going for it, no holds barred. Our last technique was a faux batik that was out-of-this-world COOL! This technique also integrated the other techniques that we learned and used a special ingredient for a resist, which was way too cool. Overall, there were a lot of happy faces, and we all had a wonderful time. Heather will be coming back next year to do something entirely different. Stay tuned for more info on that. Meanwhile, check our Heather's website http://www.purpledoorart.com . Read her blog...she talks all about us, plus she's got some great photos of the workshop and our finished products. WOOHOO!! Thanks, Heather!
