*Young Artist Retreats*
Summer 2019
Summer is a time to chase a dream, to reach for the stars and to really savor the days! Each of these artist retreats is a challenging, magical and very empowering experience! I really LOVE Summer because each artist can go deeper with each project and for more time to connect in the studio and have fun together!
The Summer StudioTime 4-day retreat daily schedule is (approximately) a packed 2+ hour morning studio session with a short break mid-morning. We head out to nearby parks for a picnic lunch, and to move our bodies! Afterwards we offer a cinema or restful activity break, then a second exciting 2+ hour afternoon session. (Note- Weather and workload can alter the daily schedule.) Please bring a lunch and beverage to each day. All materials and snacks included.

3-D Character Design Workshop
Monday-Thursday
June 17, 18, 19, 20
Meet Tomas, above. A magical owl and cat hybrid creature. This summer artists will have a chance to imagine, sketch, create backstory, design clothing and assemble their own 18" hybrid creature in this challenging and fulfilling 3-D Character Design Workshop. Following a customizable pattern, using hand and (supervised) machine sewing, embroidery, Fimo, etc., these beautiful and cuddly creatures will spring to life.
We have designed a new generation of 3-D Characters to add challenge and variety for those kids who have already created one in the studio! See the photos below!!

If you can dream it you can do it! Really! This highly requested workshop focuses on REAL building skills: foundation, framing, roofing and siding of a scale-model structure made from all natural materials. Each artist will build a structure and then construct accessory pieces to furnish their abodes. The building size is loosely based on the 1“=1’ scale.
Ages 7+ and must have some experience with the glue gun.
Young artists must be able to work independently for periods of time.
