“Moulded by Life: Lessons for Growing as an Artist”

Art can come from anywhere, make what you love, and never stop learning. Together we will explore these ideas through the lens of working with polymer clay, and how these lessons can be applied to your own journey as a developing artist or growing an artist-based craft business. Barb works in multiple mediums such as copper, fabric, paper, leather, and paints and her current jewelry work combines copper, beads, polymer clay, leather, and fabric. Barb currently teaches a variety of sewing classes, garment-making workshops, and introductory serger classes at Lakeshore Sewing Center. She also has a successful business selling her work at local craft shows.
