Think like a bird for the evening as we build layered, cozy little nests from bark, string, lace, tissue paper, newspaper, twigs, fibers, and other beautifully imperfect materials from nature.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eStudents will create a textured 3-D assemblage featuring painted eggs nestled into their creation, resulting in a unique art piece that can hang on a wall or rest on a shelf like a tiny woodland treasure. Along the way, we’ll explore layering, composition, texture, and intuitive making in a relaxed, welcoming atmosphere.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eNo art experience is required. This mini-class is designed to feel grounding, creative, and deeply connected to nature, less about perfection and more about slowing down and creating with curiosity and care.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eAll materials are provided, though you’re warmly invited to bring along any meaningful ephemera you’d like to incorporate into your nest: scraps of fabric, handwritten notes, vintage paper, feathers, small natural objects, or tiny keepsakes that tell part of your story.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cmeta charset=\"utf-8\"\u003eComplimentary wine is included, making this a perfect creative evening to share with a friend or enjoy as a little retreat for yourself.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eCome experience your inner bird and build a little sanctuary of your own. \u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eAbout Jen\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003ePainting takes me to magical places, usually conjuring a story. I love to paint the wild nature around me and get lost in the process. My paintings have abstract beginnings, sometimes with a loose charcoal drawing or translucent layers of acrylic or watercolor. I embrace playfulness and joy in my practice with the intention of creating a sense of wonder for my viewers. Jen has been teaching workshops for over 10 years and is co-owner of Garage Door Studio.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cmeta charset=\"utf-8\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eCancellation Policy:\u003c\/strong\u003e \u003cstrong\u003eNo refunds or transfers for our low cost mini workshops.\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Workshops","offers":[{"title":"Thursday, August 20th","offer_id":44599300489351,"sku":null,"price":35.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0709\/8105\/8695\/files\/IMG_1734.jpg?v=1779206158","url":"https:\/\/garagedoorstudio.com\/products\/feather","provider":"Garage Door Studio","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
