Applied Creativity in three acts - Act 1 - France Papillon

Good morning lovelies! How are you? I do hope you are good -I am! Its been a fantastic weekend - I was lucky enough to visit Coventry and take part in the Applied Creativity in three Acts workshops at the Holiday Inn. Sue Tucker of Art Workshops was at the helm and over the next few days I'll bring a few pictures of my projects. We had two workshops with each of three international artists. This post covers the ones I did with France Papillon. I really enjoyed the process in each case and was thoroughly pushed out of my comfort zone - the results are less me than the other classes - but I really learned a lot!

Saturday Workshop:


This has a pancake rather than an egg. We had issues with the plaster of Paris in this workshop although two people were successful. My pancake was actually that belonging to France! Mine was even worse! Anyway - the Workshop itself was still fun and lots of interesting techniques were undertaken.

Sunday Workshop


This is my second make with France - again way out of my comfort zone but I certainly did enjoy the journey! 

I'll bring you my makes from another artist tomorrow!

Big hugs

Rachel xx
