Hello you creative minds!
Lots of news from Santa Fe; in this post-
Five Directions to enhance your creativity, and a class Fee Reduction for 2010 to introduce them!
You deserve a pat on the back for all you have done lately, docha think?
This has been a challenging dance for all of us lately.
Voyaging through the last few years has clarified many things for each of us.
It certainly has made visible to me what’s most important: I want to best show you the vast reserves of innate creative power and magic you have within you, and guide you into drawing on these gifts for yourself and all of us.
Your creative process deserves support, because you are creating your life experiences as well as your artwork.
Many of you know how passionately I feel about your own unique abilities and creative power.
To assist you in your own light-footed happy travel, I have been refining my maps for creative and innovative action.
And I’ve restructured our class experiences to take you on a journey with these maps, the journey from intention to object.
I am reducing my class fees for 2010 so that this information is available to as many of you as possible!
Five Directions:
There are
Five primary compass headings for your voyage across the creative landscape, going from nothing to something.
from departure: feeling that moment of desire, setting off with an idea,
to arrival: your finished piece in hand, standing comfortably in your ideal new spot, mastering your creativity!
These are practical action steps, a set of choices for action and integration. Each of these is like a vehicle with extra features, made for this terrain.
As you create and innovate in these classes, you’ll travel using these steps, these vehicles.
You’ll become more familiar with them and how you can more and more effortlessly create what you desire.
The ultimate goal, the ideal second-home vacation spot? You apply these ideas to everything in your life, not only art pieces, but your expression of who you are.
The Big Creative Project, your life.
Price Reduction for Classes:
So for the rest of 2010, for all classes booked and held this year, I’ve reduced my fee to $95 a person per day.
You will still get the same abundant and useful technical information on whatever topic we choose – Mokume, Hinges, etc. Plus we will walk through the Five Directions as you apply them to your work, so you can immediately begin implementing them in your art and life.
You’ll Everything I know and have developed, based on thirty-five years of award-winning, internationally known innovative polymer techniques. And in our classes, I will lead you step-by-step through implementing these compass headings directly into your creative process.
Can you tell I am excited about this?
This special is good for the rest of this year, for classes held this year.
Please get in touch with me soon, since my schedule is filing quickly.

The brooch above is from a new series, as I get back into metal-working.
Evening Star Manta Ray is about 5″ long, polymer and sterling silver: using mokume gane and other techniques.
My intention was to make things that made me happy.
I will show you more tomorrow in the Friday Studio Roundup.
