Behind the scenes

I FINALLY got myself a small outside studio space to teach in person classes! I’m keeping things casual over the summer so if you want a tailor-made class to specifically learn what you want to learn we can set it up!

Empty studio with gray laminate on the floor and 2 big windows with trees visible. It's not much yet but it will be!

With the classes

You feel like trying a more complicated project? Repeating patterns take loads of measurements to get them just right, and then even more patience to carve them!
