All the Elements: Metal, Wood, Stone & Books - Jill K. Berry - July 7-11, 2008
What draws us to this place? A magical thread winds through the desert southwest and pulls us in. This landscape offers bounty for the artist, and we will use those offerings as an inspiration for the art we create in this class. Spend a week celebrating the colors, textures and elements of Taos and come away with shrines, books, trinkets and treasures. We will work with metal, stone, wood, found objects, painting and drawing, polymer clay and paper. We will share the poetry of the desert, and use its symbolic language to add content to our work in a contemplative, supportive environment.
For all levels of experience. Cost $590 Payment date June 15, 2008

Gwen Fox and Jill K. Berry - July 14-18, 2008
Two artists, friends, and enthusiastic teachers are offering a collaborative workshop in beautiful Taos, where the light is divine. Experience five days working, living and breathing art! We will spend the first half of the week making collage with Gwen, who is renowned for her luminous abstract collage paintings. You will learn new techniques in collage and how to make each one glow.
