Saturday's Photo Canvas Art Class results.

Well I started the day with a great start, I thought.  I made it to Gladstone on time and set up my table, Laptop, Printer and projects. I thought I had everything ready to go, I scanned in the photos and sent them to the printer.   I waited thinking that since I didn't have WiFi available and had to connect the two machine by USB it might take a little longer to communicate.  Well, we waited and waited then I decided to text my Son James, to see if he could talk me through the issues.  He did even better than that, Bless his sole, he came to Gladstone to fix the problem.  I am so glad they were patient with me.  After about an hour we were able to get on with the class and here are some of the canvases we created.  I suggested that the attendees bring a favorite photo, not too close-up, to create the project with.  I never expected them to bring pics of their animals.  I guess next time I should be prepared and take some stamps and embellishments that they can use with animal and outdoor pics as well.

This is the one Kate created for her DH for Father's Day. She wanted it man-ly so she didn't put many embellishments on, just 4 Faux studs. I like how this turned out.  

Carol made the second one. She stamped and added lots of embellishments. I'm glad I decided to make a few of the crocheted flowers.  It looks really nice on Carol's window box photo canvas art.

The other lady, Katharine, who attended had to leave before I remembered to take pictures. She brought pics of her dogs, a Chihuahua and a Pug. She made 2 Photo Canvas Art projects and decided to print her pics out as a 4" X 6" like she brought.  She placed them in the middle running up and down.  She stamped swirls on both sides of the pics and sponged the edges.  They turned out nice also, wish I had remembered to get pictures. 

As the rest of the ladies came to the crop, we were just finishing up and they saw what we had created and several like them and said they would like to take a class like that too.

I had a few say that they wanted to take a One Sheet Wonder card class also.  

If you are interested in taking any of the classes that I post, please email me jwilson@bctonline.com or call me 503-708-6889.

New Photo Canvas Art for class on Saturday May 18, 2013

I finally made more of the Canvas art and this time I took pictures with the subject a little farther back and embellished them.  Here are the pics.

 I took this pic of Jordan throwing a foot ball to his mother yesterday.  Jordan is very smart, so I embellished with gears because it seem like his are always turning,

Zack loves to shoot hoops so this is a common sight at my house. 

He also likes Sculls so I thought this would be a great embellishment for his canvas. 

 It's not often you catch Miss Mary not doing anything, she is usually on her bike or helping me do something with the chickens.  I bet she's thinking about what she can help with next.

 Miss Hailey was practicing her self taught karate lessons and I just happened to have my camera.  She is such a ham bone when she sees a camera in someones hands.  I crocheted the white flower.

These will be fun to hang on the wall, as a group or by themselves.

I am offering this class at my crop on Saturday May 18th, for just $10.00, if you wish to take the class, you can sign up for our Meetup Group Portland Friends Scrap to RSVP and reserve your spot, space is limited. You can call me 503-708-6889 to schedule another class time.

Canvas Art Class for $10.00, Saturday May 18, 2013.

Hi everyone,

I decided that I would teach a Canvas Art class on Saturday May 18, 2013.  Here is the project we will be doing.  I hope you will join me for the class.

I choose pictures that were too large to add embellishments so I will be making more and choosing pics with subjects a little farther back.  I didn't get all the wrinkles out either.

They look better in person than in this pic.  It was a lot of fun trying to figure out how to add a photo to the canvas.  I tried several things and this was the best way that I could find.  It took me all day to get this done too.
