e-course materials list

here’s an overview of materials I use in most e-course {a detailed supply list will be emailed with your registration confirmation}. NOTE: All of my workshops incorporate using simple materials and tools. Most of these are simple mixed media/art supplies and found materials. I am a big believer of using what you already own...shop your stash. Here is a list of basic recommended supplies. I will share my favorites during the workshop.
