Oops and more pictures

(That last post wasn't supposed to say "oo" at the end. I was going to write oops, Blogger won't let me upload any more pictures:) So anyway, here are the rest from the Queen Bee Art Cottage class.

Before I go to Art and Soul Retreat in Virginia Beach, I want to share a bunch of photos of creations from my Art of Life group and Sunday's class at Queen Bee Art Cottage in Olympia.

First, from The Art of Life women's group:

 

Now, from my beginning encaustic workshop at Queen Bee. A lot of photos, but I hope you'll enjoy seeing the variety of creative work from these intrepid students! These are just those of my photos that turned out--lots more pieces were made. (Part 1)
