Grunge Ink Live

Friday, Feb. 27th, 2015

10 am - 4 pm 
Are you intrigued by experimental art?  Does letting loose and letting things ‘flow’ excite and scare you at the same time?  During this action packed and fun filled class we are going to create a variety of Inked up abstracts on an amazing surface which will allow you to add, subtract, draw, drip and more as you create one of a kind grungy abstract mixed media art pieces.  Learn how to create compositions that begged to be touched and leave your viewer wondering ‘how did they do that?’!!!! The creative energy you will bring to class will literally assist in the act of ‘transformation’ each and every piece from one stage to another. Be ready for exhilarating exercises, bring your fearless artistic self, and come prepared for hours of grungy inky fun and creative experimentation! 
This class is for those who are fearless and love to experiment, or for those that want to be more adventurous in their art. It is for those who want to let loose and play with abstract compositions using contemporary materials.  We will be working on Yupo paper and incorporating a variety of acrylic inks, paints, India ink and tons of special effects to garner intriguing and luscious layers in our contemporary abstract works.


  • Skill level:   All skill levels are welcome.  The process can be as simple or complex as you desire. 

  • Duration:  The class will be a one day version which compliments my online class, Grunge Ink.

I'm excited to be back teaching at Jerry's Artarama in Raleigh, NC.  I've had tons of people ask me if I would be teaching locally again and low and behold--we made it happen!  
I'll be at Jerry's for 2 different dates in early Spring, 2015.  



Summon your Guardian Angel, your muse, your most trusted source of inspiration during this paint and collage mini class. Using limited color palettes, texture, and simple yet layered designs, we will create two 6x12 whimsical and inspirational “Angelic Inspirations” during this 3 hour workshop jam packed with techniques. Come play, have fun and walk away with great pieces to keep or give as gifts to those you love!

If you've been a fan of my work for awhile, you'll know that creating funky little city (or beach) scapes are some of my favorite themes for compositions. This course is much much more than just a few doodles on canvas, you'll walk away with a plethora of techniques on how to use layers of acrylic paints combined with drawing medium all the while letting your imagination run wild in a child like manner (deceptively child like as the depth of these paintings will go as deep as you wish them to but still be fun and loose)!
