Upcoming Classes
My in-person classes are in the Boston area at Concord Art
and The Mosesian Center for the Arts. My live online class, BOOKFUL,
is a collaboration with master bookbinder Bari Zaki.
I also have two online self-study classes at Carla Sonheim Presents.
"I love teaching because I get to see people become
adventurous and empowered through making art."

BOOKFUL: Live online!
In fall, winter and spring, I co-teach a 4-week online class with master bookbinder Bari Zaki , owner of the fabulous paper goods store, Bari Zaki Studios, at 3858 North Lincoln Avenue in Chicago. On the first Saturday, Bari leads the class in creating a handmade book, some stitched and some accordion. Each student gets a full kit of quality and exotic papers to work with. In the next 3 weeks, I lead the class in making drawings and paintings to fill the books. Each time, we choose a different theme. We've done food, clothes, botanicals, and portraits of artists we love, amongst others. In the last BOOKFUL we took inspiration from 3 women artists: Vanessa Bell, Sonia Delaunay and Rose Wylie.
Please join the mailing list to learn about our next offering! All are welcome and you will emerge with a beautiful book and some new art ideas. We have now completed 11 BOOKFULS! Next up: January 2024!

In each workshop we explore drawing in sketchbooks in order to hone skills and get ideas for the art we want to make. We also explore how to make art an uplifting practice.
