Well I lived through this week and had a ball.  I taught Beginner Wire Jewelry at the Coronado Center in Hot Springs Village, AR which was a double sponsored workshop for me to teach for the first time.  The Coronado Center and National Park Community College Continuing Education were the sponsors.  I failed to put a limit on the class, lesson learned the hard way.  There were 31 students, panic set in but fortunately they agreed to split the class.  I taught one in the morning and one in the afternoon for three days in a row.  What a great time to be with such energetic people getting excited over beads, and making loops and hammering wire.  Here is a view of a classroom  (above) before the students arrive.  Thanks so  much to everyone who took the workshop.

​Here is a glimpse of some of their activity .

A whole week of getting to teach, photograph and paint in watercolor shiny objects like glass with wonderful reflections.  Here are some pictures  of my demonstrations with a few progression pictures.  I have been wanting to paint marbles for quite a while.  Almost completed one.......

Now the good part, teaching and watching students learn, create, photograph and experiment and learn to love watercolor.  They were such a laid back fun group to be with.  Such a relaxing time.  Here is just a little slide show of the week, enjoy!
