Create your own personal art shrine in this class! Using Clayboard for the base, we’ll explore coloring treatments with a variety of inks, then stamp & etch the Clayboard for a unique effect. Move on to a wooden box featuring a hinged screen lid, perfect for housing your artist’s muse. We’ll coat the box with a custom Pearl Ex paint for a hammered metal look, then finish with collage. Mount your shrine to the Clayboard & build your very own art altar, inviting your muse to come out and play!
