Hello everyoneI'm so excited that Festive Soul Food officially starts tomorrow!! Whoop! Whoop! And I have a lovely freebie to share with you today. One of the Head Chefs at Soul Food- Mystele has filmed a free art class for everyone- regardless of if you're taking the class. Here's the link to all the information you need to watch the free class (trust me- it's a good one ;)).And here's the link to our lovely Soul Food class introduction video. Enjoy the free class & I hope to see you in the class room, it's going to be so much fun. Wish me luck!
Hello all, I have an exciting announcement today! I am absolutely thrilled to say that I'm one of the Sous-Chefs teaching on Festive Soul Food 2015. Whoop! Whoop! Thank you so much to Mystele, Jeanette & Heather for having me.
Along with 9 other Sous-Chefs & the three Head Chefs above I will be teaching an art class online. It will be so exciting to learn from & watch a variety of artists at work- I always find it fascinating to see another artist's processes don't you? All the information you will need to sign up is here or paste this in your browser and head to the Festive Soul Food page:
In celebration, I'm holding a giveaway here at my blog for one free spot on Festive Soul Food. To enter just share this post with your friends on Facebook, Twitter, Instagram etc & leave me a comment below to say where you shared it. Giveaway ends on Sunday 12th July at midnight but enter now just in case you forget : -)
To kick things off, here's a little interview I recorded about me & my journey as an artist. The three Head Chefs gave me these questions to answer:
What are some of the things that nourish your soul - where do your ideas come from? What is one piece of advice you’d like to share with other artists?
What drives your sense of validation or legitimacy as an artist? What are some elements that make your work “yours” - what are some recurring themes in your work? Which creative medium would you love to pursue but haven’t yet?
This is the first interview I've ever recorded of myself (eeeeeeeekkkk!), so if I seem a little nervous that's why!! Hope you like it & that you will join us on this festive art journey.
