  19. Oh Goodness... just thought of another idea for new online classes.

    We have seen the amazing artwork that your husband does...hmmm... any chance of him offering a beginners online drawing class?

    Or how about an online class that the two of you teach together! That would be cool.

    I bet a lot of us would enjoy either/or both!!!

    Have a Happy Day.

  103. Hi Alisa,
    Thanks for the opportunity! I would really like to learn more layering/pattern techniques. For me, I think the most challenging aspect of art, is to quit playing it safe, and shut down that inner critic!

    ReplyDelete
  104. I have a bit of an obscure desire which is, to "unlearn" perfectionism. Seriously! I need to be more loose and grungy and messy! I have too many art journals with pages that are blank, canvases unfinished and art supplies rarely used (like my sewing machine!). If I do use my art supplies, I feel like I'm just tinkering. What am I waiting for???

    I would love to learn whimsical art journaling, watercolor textures, mixed-media textiles, abstract print or fabric design making, and somehow collage everything together into a book!

    Thank you for being an inspiration, Alisa!

  167. You have a beautiful blog, and your creations are wonderful!

    I would love to make more art in general. I am pretty crafty and can turn a t-shirt into a lot of different things, but I am interested in learning more of the art side of things. Drawing (people and landscapes), watercolors, and clay would probably be my three biggest, though I just love learning new ways to be creative.

  171. Oh my... what techniques would I like to learn??? How to narrow it down... Let's see...

    Stamp Carving would be #1
    Sketching and Drawing
    Tissue Paper Collage... really collage of any type.
    Simple silk screen
    Dying... fabric, wood, eggs, string, whatever!
    How to silence my 'inner critic'
    Lettering/writing
    A paper primer... what paper is good for markers, water colors, acrylic etc.

    I can find instructions for most of these on line... however I enjoy your style and 'spin' on things and would prefer to learn from you.

    Like you, I believe creating art should not be costly

  172. Thank you for doing this wonderful giveaway treats! I would love to learn how to combine the nature with my arts. I am a self-taught artist,and I have learned all the things that I want to learn by myself. It is time-consuming,and most of the time I made many mistakes through the process. However, I am so lucky to be able to do what I LOVE TO DO in my life which is create! So, I would love to learn watercolor technique,and how to enrich my illustration with all the things that I love in nature. I enjoy visiting your blog,and get inspired because you are doing exactly what I would love to do. So, I have been going outdoor,and sketch whatever I want lately. It is so rewarding!!! ^______^ Thank you for inspiring me to create more!!!
