Student's LIbro de Ofrendas



photos of student projects from our art retreat in Mexico
Our project for Libro de Ofrendas, in San Miguel de Allende, included 4 days of workshops. One from each of us, Laurie Mika taught the polymer clay tiles for the cover, Lynn Leahy taught reverse glass painting and collage, for inside the altar cover, Helen Shafer Garcia taught paste papers and book binding to create the book, and Jane LaFazio taught Sketching and Watercolor to create small paintings to paste within the book. Here are photos of the students completed project covers.
