Sketchbook Challenge at Make-It-University!

If you were in Houston, you might have seen some of us today in the Make-It-University area doing the  Sketchbook Challenge Round Robin workshop!  We taught from 1:15 to 2:15 this afternoon in Make-It-University in the exhibitor's area of the International Quilt Festival.  If you signed up to participate in the workshop, you were one busy person!  We gave each participant a goodie bag filled with wonderful mixed-media items.
After this workshop, Jamie and I worked in Open Studios.  I love having people stop by and visit.  I demonstrated more gelatin plate monoprinting and had a lot of fun talking to all that stopped by.

Woo Hoo!

Here are two shots of the fast-paced MIU event:

I wish I had been able to take more photos during this wild event!  I know others did (hello Sue Bleiweiss) and when I am able, I will add more shots.  Four instructors demoed a different technique.  Students had about 12 minutes at each station.  Crazy fun!  We did gelatin plate monoprinting on 2 types of paper and 2 types of cloth.  The students got some amazing prints using a variety of unconventional tools.  You know me:  what did you expect?  Something "normal"?!
