Just for the Birds
Student examples
This is a fun project, very similar to paper mache but you will be using tinfoil instead of paper and Paverpol instead of glue so they will be able to be outside and dress up your garden, or in the home on a mantle. You will have the choice of 3 sandpipers or the Quail family, which will include mom and dad and a few baby's depending on timing.
All you need to bring is a piece of driftwood to put the birds on.
Cost: $135 (including all supplies)
Date: July 30, 2026 (note this is a Thursday)
Time: 10 - 4 (end time is aprox depending on details/ finishing)

These birdsare approx. 60 cm tall (note not the 4ft heron) and will make a great addition to your garden. This is a 1 and 1/2 day workshop so you will have the time to complete the finishing touches on the 2nd day without feeling exhausted or rushed. For the beginners you have a choice of either a heron or Canada goose, or just any goose. For those with previous experience you can choose to make a rooster.
This is a great project to learn to work with Paverpol and old t-shirts to create this fabulous outdoor or indoor sculpture!

Private Workshops and Retreats
Bring a small group together for a fun and engaging creative experience. I can host 4–6 participants in my home, with the option to add lunch for an additional fee or you may bring your own. For larger groups, I’m happy to travel to your location.
Workshops can also include mindfulness and self-compassion practices to create a more meaningful and enriching experience. This may range from a brief mindfulness exercise at the beginning of the session to more in-depth practical guidance. As a Mindfulness Self Compassion teacher I have done weekend retreats in the past incorporating both art and the practice of Mindfulness and Self Compassion.
I can bring workshops to the lower mainland, Fraser Valley and the Shuswap/ Okanagan.
