So, you're sitting in your making space, and:

• A quick glance at your 'work in progress' stack makes you feel a little queasy
• You know there's some gold in there somewhere, but you find it so hard to know what to add
• Making the decision and taking the risk seems beyond you - what if you ruin it?
• You don't even know when something's complete (does that mean you're even a real artist?)
• You stare and stare and stare, but the answers never reveal themselves
• How do other artists create coherent bodies of work with a recognisable thread running through it?

What if there was another way?

• Working without fear of ruining a piece of artwork
• Picking out a piece and just knowing what to add (or take away)
• A library of ideas to turn to to bring some magic or transform a piece of artwork
• Feeling confident about knowing a piece of art is complete
• Finally seeing your unique threads running through your art

Let me take you by the hand and show you some simple ways to get some of that stack over the line.

Every artist struggles with knowing when something's finished (so it certainly doesn't mean you're not an artist).

All Summer I've been adding (or taking away) Just 1 Thing to my stack of unfinished prints, slowly but surely getting them to the finish line.

And now, you're invited to watch me do it live!

Join me for a free, online workshop where I'll show you:

• How I decide what something needs and when to add it
• My 3 'Ds' strategy for deciding what a piece of art needs
• The tools and supplies I reach for when I need to add soul/magic/'oomph'
• Some of the ideas and motifs I lean on to do the heavy lifting for me
• The simple things I add or take away to a piece of artwork to elevate it

If we haven't met before...
