EGA Seminar 2026 In-Person Class

Going Places: Hands-On Design & Color is a three-day, in-person class during Seminar. In-person class registration opens January 20, 2026. My design shown above is Yosemite Falls. Your design can be based on a place that has meaning for you. This is an opportunity to create a design from scratch with the help and support of a teacher. When you have design and color questions, I will answer by offering choices AND giving you reasons for them based on design and color principles. Then, you make the final choice, thus retaining your originality. You have the opportunity to ask questions or email me potential designs before class. Support continues after class by email.

EGA Seminar 2026 Virtual Class

Possibilities for Mixed Media and Fibers is a virtual class that runs before & after Seminar. Virtual class registration opens April 14, 2026. This class has 8 detailed videos with demonstrations, 3 Zoom meetings, individual consultations (as desired), and a comprehensive kit. Shown below, a book containing samples that invoke an imaginary trip to Tuscany. More details will appear in my email newsletter. You can sign up for the newsletter using the “Join My Newsletter” button at the top.
