Scheduled classes are offered around the Pacific Northwest.   Some of them have a special focus for added interest.  All of them are appropriate for both beginning and returning students.  The classes include plenty of time for individual attention.  
Independent classes - which often become "Painting Parties" - are also an option.  If you have 
6 - 12 friends or associates who would like to join you, contact Janet to make arrangements.  You can come to my studio, or I can come to you.
Tutoring and my studio space and equipment are available for those who want to focus on a personal project.  Contact Janet to talk it over.

Painting on Silk?   Easy to Do!


If you’ve always admired the beauty of silk and the colorful scarves and clothing that designers create with it, learn how easy it is to create those beautiful colors and designs yourself.  

With the simple Serti technique, you stretch the silk and trace the outline of your design with a resist.  You can use my patterns or your own.  Then paint on the dyes, and watch as they flow, blending and doing all kinds of interesting things naturally.

Janet’s extensive teaching experience insures that everyone is successful.  Beginners’ first pieces are amazing.  Experienced painters easily add this new medium to their repertoire.  The silk is beautiful, the dyes are beautiful - it all works!

Kids love to paint, too.  Set up a class for your Girl Scout group, homeschoolers, or a birthday party.  Or for a real family treat, try a joint class for kids, parents, and grandparents.  Everyone has fun!
