Hi, all,

Please see the "About" page for details about this Meetup.

Upcoming 2009 Meetups:
• Paper Arts Meetup, early December
• Meetup field trip or out-of-studio gathering, late December

I invite you to email me - let me know what you are looking for in your creative life. Want a regular meeting? A circle of support, the same people each week? want to get messy and make art? want to nurture yourself well during the holidays?

December Holiday Open Studio
• for those who have attended this Meetup's event/s in 2009...
• Please contact me by Saturday, November 28 if you are interested in attending!
We will be doing a fun project in the Paper Arts for the holidays ($10. material fee payable at the door).

Alert! *Muse Journey Studio*, a program which goes way beyond the capabilities of The Artist's Way, has only a few openings in 2010. I will have a slide show up soon at http://sparkingart.com/programs-creativity.htm#MuseJourne...

The next sequence of *Muse Journey Studio* starts in late January, and enrollment ends the first week in January. We use the book, The Nine Modern Day Muses & a Bodyguard, by Jill Badonsky. *Muse Journey Studio* provides group support, creativity coaching, art process; amazing things happen on this creative journey when you become a participant!

To sign up for MuseViews: go to http://sparkingart.com/html/contact.htm

Folding Paper Stars

Made of glassine in many colors, the paper is translucent, and the weight of wax-paper. The folded stars are hung in windows and during the day allow the light to pass through them, lighting up your windows all day long.

We will make at least three different shapes and sizes. Smaller ones can be used to top specially wrapped gifts. See photos (I will posting a few more...) Read more
