Class Description:

Those plastic caps on your water, milk, and soda pop bottles, and any food containers' caps get a new life in an art work you create. Start saving those caps in all sizes and colors to be used in creating a mosaic-like look on a canvas. Canvases, paint and brushes will be provided, but feel free to bring your own if you would like to work in a different size or particular color. There will be discussions on themes and compositions to make an interesting work of art.

 

Instructor Biography:

Deb Hanson began her teaching career with a bachelor's degree in Physical Education and spent a few years teaching in that area. Then came children and after a few years working as a stay-at-home mom, she went back to school for a second bachelor's degree in Art Education, and taught art for over fifteen years. She also earned a master's degree in Visual Studies. When she retired from teaching art in the schools she earned her Yoga Teacher Certification. Deb still takes art classes at Terravita because she loves learning and is still curious!

Suzy Fleury has been sewing, crafting, and painting for practically as long as she can remember. She made her first garment at the age of 8, and has sewn clothing and costumes ever since. Her Barbie dolls were the best-dressed in the neighborhood, and her kids always had extremely creative Halloween costumes. Suzy has been quilting for about 10 years, making bed quilts and a few art quilts. She also loves oil painting, especially portraiture. But her years of volunteering at preschool and Cub Scout camps have given her valuable experience with making something out of nothing - the very essence of Recycled Art.
