Come join artist Wendy Brightbill for a day of creative exploration. In Wendy's Vintage Stitched Collage Canvas workshop we will build layer upon layer atop a canvas base. Much as an old fashioned sewing circle we will sit side by side, needle in hand as we create our stitched canvases. With a sprinkling of paper and paint, perhaps a snip of fabric, Wendy will share her process for creating the beautiful pieces she is known for. Come spend the day with us, making new friends and catching up with old, as we learn to create in this colorful, lively Wendy way!

Supply to Bring:

needle & thread, embroidery floss, scissors, hot glue gun
embellishments: acrylic paint & paint brushes, photographs (black & white are ideal), small bits of vintage paper, lace, ribbon, yarn

It's been too long since we've offered an art journaling workshop and we are thrilled to bring Colorado artist Wendy Brightbill to Gilding the Lily to share her process with you.

Using vintage/found papers, hand stitching, lace, tape, collage and more Wendy will spend the day with us sharing unconventional ways for transforming a simple journal into a one-of-a-kind art piece. Come with an open mind and an attitude for play as this is sure to be a fun filled class!
