Looking for a fun and family-friendly way to celebrate Earth Day? Then join me for Art & Nature Adventure Day at the Bellevue Library! Make a nature journal, and decorate the cover in your own style. Observe nature up-close and learn more about the new Art & Nature Adventure Kits. Drop in anytime between 1 and 4 p.m.; it’s free! I’d love to have a few more volunteers, so just let me know if you’d like to help; hope to see you on April 22!

And here’s another opportunity to celebrate nature — come to the opening reception for The Treasures of Warner Parks on Friday, March 31st; view work by more than 20 members of Tennessee Watercolor Society, including me! Hope to see you sometime between 5:30 to 7:30 p.m. at the Warner Park Nature Center!

I’ve also got a Mixed Media class and a Watercolor Basics workshop coming up in April; you can find out the details here: https://www.elizabethsanford.com/classes/

Free March Workshop, Pod People Reunion and More!

What a treat to have a mini reunion with the work of Beth Reitmeyer and Chip Boles, 2 of my fellow Pod People from last summer’s Modular Art Pods Event at OZ Arts! We all had pieces in the Hall of Lanterns at the Nashville Lantern Festival earlier this month; it was fun seeing 2 of my lanterns tucked in-between some of Beth’s Geodes and having “Steve” point the way to my 6-foot lantern at the end of the hall.

Here’s my helper Charlotte inside Spicebush Tales, my traveling 6-foot forest cube; we had a great time helping people make pop-up bird books at the Bellevue Library! It was a pleasure to be part of the Tennessee Craft Week festivities. Look for the return of Spicebush Tales in the spring!

Interested in joining us for the Natural Abstractions workshop on Nov. 5 at Plaza Artist Materials? It’s almost full, so register soon if you want one of the last spots! Learn more here:
