Tesoro Del Corazon 2019 presents........

We are very happy to announce our guest artist and to reveal our project for this year's retreat in San Miguel de Allende, (October 28-Nov. 5th) This year, 2019, marks our 9th year that our group, Tesoro del Corazon, has been offering retreats in San Miguel de Allende, Mexico. How quickly the time has passed!

Our project this year is called "Tesoros Y Curiosidades", (Treasures and Curiosities) and is a nature inspired house-shaped box that speaks to our mutual love for collecting and displaying small objects.  However, there are plenty of directions that students can take to follow their hearts in creating a unique box. These boxes can be hung on the wall or displayed on an easel/plate stand. They measure 9 x 16 inches.

Lynn will once again be sculpting with paper clay, breaking down the process in a way that makes it truly successful for students. Helen will be sharing techniques for creating a beautifully bound nature journal while Laurie uses polymer clay and transfers to create decorative front panels and also uses molds to fashion an object to place in the box.

And drum roll......

We are happy and so very pleased to announce that Elitia Hart will once again be joining us as our guest artist this year. Elitia, who is a Canadian metal repousee artist, shares her fabulous techniques for embossing pewter. She will be creating the roof section and also the side panels that will add a beautiful and rich detail  to our curiosity boxes. Students raved the last time Elitia joined us in Mexico as she is a fabulous instructor, a talented metal artist and just about the kindest person you will ever meet. 

We know this is going to be another great year. Hope you can join us! Our retreat coordinator, Leslie Harris, will be sending out registration information on February 1st.....so stay tuned! If you are interested in attending and haven't contacted Leslie yet to be put on our interest list, you may email her at tesorocorazonretreats@gmail.com.
