Create + Play is not your typical step-by-step zoom class, but more of an experience.

Are you looking for a couple of hours of fun? To get messy and play with yummy art supplies? Be part of a community that encourages and inspires one another? Look no further! If you like my Facebook or Instagram Lives, you will love these sessions as they are much more interactive. Each session is on Zoom and recorded (whether you turn on your camera or not!) The next best thing to being together in person is to be Live online with each other.

Art to Give

Create some gorgeous art to give (and keep)

In this fun class, we will give these holiday flowers a new twist by painting in a whimsical, flowing style with acrylic paint and paint pens. We will make our flowers modern using a bright palette, fun brush strokes, and making marks dotted with silver! I will show you how I paint multiple flowers on paper and then use these pieces to create art to frame or turn into a greeting card!

Not your mother's Poinsettia!

Whimsical ways to create holiday decor

We will take one of the pieces and adhere it to a wooden block – just imagine all sizes and colors of these flowers on your mantel! They would look beautiful. I will share tips and ideas on how to make and display this bright and fun holiday decor!

I had so much fun with this class that I repeated it several times with a few tweaks. I plan to cut them down a little and use them for Christmas cards for my family. I did the name tags too and plan to attach them to some of our presents. Thank you Andrea for a fun class!!

This class was so fun! I really enjoyed just playing and creating paintings that are "not your Momma's" poinsettias. Had to do a dozen of them, in several color options and love them all. Thank you, Andrea!

This was such a fun and relaxing class! I like the freedom to create something on your own instead of using a pattern.
