Sweet Treat for You...Enter to win a NEW Class!

I have lots of thoughts about 2013 and beyond but I'm going to table that post to bring you a SWEET treat!  Yay...let's start the New Year off right by giving away a tuition for my next class,  "Twinks on Yupo"     (hosted over at Dreaming Color ) which starts January 11th and run 4 weeks but will be self study for a 12 month time frame from when you sign up so you will have PLENTY of time to work on the projects...but why not join in right from the beginning and play along with us!

We will learn all sorts of ways to use Yupo paper, engrossing ourselves to the beauty of bright water media compositions.    Tips, tricks, techniques and lessons in texture are just some of the topics we will be working on for this class. In addition, I will also show you ways to use Yupo with traditional watercolors in an abstract way and combining both regular watercolors with Twinkling H20s.  This is a one of a kind opportunity to really enhance your skills and work on a substrate that very few work on let alone understand!

 Just look at this juicy color you an achieve when using Yupo paper!

 Quirky Funky designs....anyone can do this,and I will show you how!!

Okay so what is the dealio for the giveaway??

Simple leave a comment on this post and I will be taking comments through Saturday,January 5th.  If you've all ready signed up ...that's okay too..you can either choose to get your tuition refunded or gift it to a friend or donate it to someone who maybe has come across hard times.   
What should you say in your comments?  How about tell me one of your artistic goals for 2013...and how you are going to make it happen!  Bonus entry:  Share this post on facebook, twitter, tumblr...or whatever else is out there and then comeback here and let me know in a second comment!

Whooohoooo I love giveaways!


Everyone is a winner in this class as you also get a $30.00 coupon for Luminarte paint to help with your supply purchases!

Let's make 2013 a year where we not only create art, but we learn more and enhance our skills.  Life is good. 

 Happy New Year!!

My artistic goal for 2013 us Just Do It! Enough fantasizing about what I could and should do, I am going to push myself to just try it. I already started today by making my very first journal and filling in two pages. Yay for 2013!

Maureen Hayes said...

Oh Jodi, I so hope I win this. My birthday is Friday, Jan.4th, so this would be a wonderful present! My goal for this year is to be less fearful about trying new things, so this would fit in perfectly with that as I have ever used this medium. Thank you for the chance to win a spot in this class,

Happy New Year to everyone,
Maureen

Not sure if this is open to international readers, but in case it is; my artistic goals for this year are simply to make more art. I sketch each day, but want to broaden my daily page with more colour and adventure. ;-)

bwheather said...

I also shared this on Facebook, but used the link from the other blog. Ooops, sorry if that was the wrong thing to do. I still shared it. ;-)

dragongourd said...

I have some Twinks but not sure how to get the best out of them. I'd love to win the class.

Jude said...

Thank you for this great give away. My artistic goal for 2013 is to paint, paint, paint. I have just bought some twinks and would love to learn how to use them properly. I can't find anyone in Australia who can uses these beautiful pots of luciousness.

Jodi~ this is such a blessing to have an opportunity like this!!! My goal for this year is for God to open more doors for me to be able to share & embody more of my artistic gifts/abilities & use them to help others that r less fortunate just as u r doing by providing this opportunity to someone less fortunate that can't afford to expand their wings on the beauty of ur canvas. TU for being such a giving free spirit & it shows in ur beautiful artwork~I'm in love w/ ur art!!! What a blessing just to know ur heart & ur art!!!~Leigh

Gayle Mills said...

Happy new year! What a great site you have. Just found you from the 21 Secrets (dirty footprints studio) blog and I'm so glad I did. I love your use of colors. I used to do pastel portraits and that seems ages ago. You have so inspired me to try this new medium and brighten my 2013. I've felt lost as an artist and look forward to soul searching, letting my mind go and enjoying art. Thanks for the uplift of my spirit.

In the words of Miss Frizzle: "Make mistakes! Take chances!" I've given myself permission to just play, without the need for a goal or an outcome....haven't done a lot, so I've got lots of mistakes to make!!

Shine on!

Tanya said...

I plan to make a complete journal thats been art journaled in and to make a book of quotes. I also want to learn to oil paint. My plan on making it happen is to do at least one page every week and to get some books on oil painting and to see if my grandfather who used to be an art teacher to tell me about oil painting. I am hoping that will be enough.

stacie said...

This year I want to draw or paint something every day, even if it's just a quick sketch. Learning how to use all those supplies would be fun, too!

Stephanie said...

My artistic goal for 2013...be FEARLESS! Stop letting my fears keep me from creating, learn to love my mistakes and my experiments and my attempts to create, because no matter what they look like, I will learn from everything I do.
