On Friday, November 4, 2016 we held the Chickpea Art Resist Workshop at ART SPARK. This particular technique was created by my friend Sandra Spagnuolo, who is an Artist and Art Instructor. Sandra and I have known each other since 2010. It was Sandra's mixed-media art classes that threw me into the world of mixed-media art. I would listen to the instructions but then begin to branch off and do "my thing". Sandra was so patient and understanding with me. She embraced my desire to elevate my skills as an Artist, to stretch myself and push my 'art envelope'. We decided to hold the workshop with a mix of adults and children. All three of my children have art in their lives, naturally, they grew up surrounded by my ideas of art. Both Sandra and I strongly believe that we need to share our ideas and inspirations to the younger generation. It was an amazing night of messy art, engaging conversation and inspiration. The photos here are the chickpea resist sheets created by my two children, E & M, and me. The reveal will happen later once the acrylic paints on the sheets are fully dry. It's good to see the process as well as the results. Enjoy !
