"I never believed that I was able to make art until 13 years ago. That changed when I found some online courses teaching "Whimsical Faces". I signed up and discovered that creating non-realistic faces was not only fun and fulfilling, but people actually loved them!
Starting out with markers, I created many fun, intuitive faces. I didn't use references; I found that the faces told me what they wanted. All I had to do was to let go of control and my ideas of how a face should look. I soon discovered mixed media and collage, and the whole world opened up! I was creating art that I loved. Not everyone loved it or "got it", but my people - pleasing self DID NOT CARE!
That feeling of enjoying things that others didn't understand spread into other areas of my life and helped me become more accepting of my quirky self.
Come join visiting Artist Patty Bover in making fun, even silly, faces! We'll relax, make art, and laugh a lot! No judgment, just PLAY!
We'll use lots of different art supplies, and definitely collage! Please join us!"
