What’s the Big Idea?
What’s the Big Idea?
This is now a self-paced workshop, and links to recorded videos will be emailed after purchase.
You have your materials, and you’ve mastered some of the techniques. Now what are you going to make? And that’s when you freeze.
It can be overwhelming as we sit down to create, and we can often feel like we have no idea what we’re doing. We might be uncertain about what we want to make and, more importantly, what we want to say. How do we discover what we want our art to say?
We’ll explore just that — how to make work that is purposeful, meaningful, and full of depth. We’ll dive into themes and big ideas and figure out how to set limitations, make crucial decisions, and create with intention. This workshop is all about helping you to tap into the truth that you want to tell with your art, so use any materials, media, and techniques you wish, since this experience will give you time and structure as you engage in a variety of activities, exercises, and challenges designed to help you discover the messages that you want to express. Join in and push your art to a whole new level.
This was originally a live class where we met through Zoom. It is now a self-paced workshop.
This is pay-what-you-can workshop, so please select what you would like to pay below. Once you pay, I will email you with links and a password to the archived videos, typically within 24 hrs of purchase. This will be a separate email that I send out personally, and it is different from the order confirmation that you will receive automatically after purchase.

blank index cards or blank paper
