Los Mitones

"Winter is time for comfort,

for good food and warmth,

for the touch of a friendly hand and

for a talk beside the fire: It is the time for home."

Yes, in these parts it certainly is c-o-l-d outside. In fact, it has been so cold that most of my afternoon strolls currently take place indoors near windows so I be as close as possible to the snowcovered landscape just outside my door. Brrrrr....

Every now and again a squirrel with its bushy tails rushes through the snow and quickly bounds up a pinetree to take cover in the branches overhead. And throughout the day songbirds stop quickly at the feeder to pick up some sunflower seeds and soon fly off again to a location with more cover from the cold and predators .

Yet, despite the cold and snow, this coming Sunday, Jan 21, from 9-10 am CDT, I am teaching a virtual, step-by-step drawing class, and you are invited to attend from the comfort of your own home.

Want to do this but not feeling confident?

NO WORRIES as I give simple, step-by-step instructions using the Zentangle art method to help you create something beautiful and unique.

It is also easy to join -- follow the link below to get your virtual ticket, and click the Zoom link to join the day of the event. You will purchase the ticket via Eventbrite and use Zoom to attend the session. Again, use the link below to get your virtual ticket.

Sunday, Jan 21 -- https://www.eventbrite.com/e/step-by-step-drawing-zentangle-art-tickets-793841089067?aff=oddtdtcreator

Basic supplies -- paper / sketchpad; fineline black marker; graphite pencil and a blending stub.

Seats are limited and sales are currently underway.

See you Sunday morning.

Sunday Mornings -- Join Us!

In these parts it is cold outside yet warm inside when we gather virtually and get creative with other likeminded folks.

And, that is exactly what I am offering for two upcoming Sunday mornings in January. This coming Sunday, Jan 14 and next Sunday, Jan 21, from 9-10 am CDT.
