I like the sea glass jewelry. I bought a pair of earrings at that shop last year and I wear them all the time. I wonder if she made them. I am on the fence about the painting classes. I liked the jellyfish and the sea turtle. Not real crazy about the pier. Of course, I loved the paint your pup, but I know that is not for everyone. :)

I liked paint your pup, too, Judy! I'm not keen on everyone painting the same thing which is why I liked the alcohol ink thing.

Judy.... I agree.... I liked the idea of the paint your pup class... maybe that's something I need to play with a little before putting oils to canvas, though :-)

I'm thinking we all might have fun doing an alcohol ink class, though... something nondescript that might give us some ideas for using our alcohol ink collections.

Just found a different ad about the class at the restaurant... (so maybe he'll let ya'll drink at the studio, too... but it'd be BYOB, I'm sure)... http://www.hang12art.com/current-classes/alcohol-inks/

here's that original link again... I can check to find out if he'll let you bring wine if we're not doing this at that restaurant ... http://www.hang12art.com/paint-party/alcohol-inks-2/

Looks like he's using alcohol inks on a white ceramic tile.

Here are some instructions for doing just that... http://www.instructables.com/id/Alcohol ... -Coasters/

Of course... if we practice a lot, we could make tiles like these... https://www.etsy.com/listing/267124857/ ... gQodlhQEPg

or these.... holy cow!! https://images-na.ssl-images-amazon.com ... aGEGPL.jpg

I am much more interested in the sightseeing than any of the classes. So I will go see any of this, Debi.
