Monthly Art Project - Brenda Gael Smith - Birds on a Wire

I acknowledge that I live and create on the land of the Darkinjung and Guringai people and recognise their continuing connection to this place. I pay my respects to Elders past, present and emerging and extend that respect to all First Nations people.

It’’s 31 days since I launched the Dreamlines It’’s 31 days since I launched the Dreamlines Projec, a free monthly art project for 2023 that is open to everyone. There’s an optional Facebook group too. Join online today. Link in profile.

Since then a veritable cascade of #januarydreamlines fine line dashes have been shared by dreamers all over the world. Such colour! Such variety!

Look out for tomorrow when I will be releasing the February design!

Circles are powerful design elements creating move Circles are powerful design elements creating movement and interest. 

Jump online and book one of the last remaining spaces in my FUNdamentally Circles workshop that is coming up tomorrow 6-9am Friday 27 January (Sydney time). This is Thursday afternoon/evening in North America/Europe.

Learn freeform piecing without templates or pins. Explore the design possibilities of circles – fractured, distorted, quartered and more. 

For graduates of FUNdamentally Circles, I have Beyond FUNdamentally Circles coming up on Thursday 9 February which goes deeper with half circles and other curvilinear shapes. I expect this will be the only time I teach this workshop on Zoom this year. Don’t miss out!

PS: if the booking form doesn’t work for any reason, message/email me and I will book you in manually.
