I had the honor and pleasure of taking an art class with the talented and F'in awesome
Traci Bunkers at Art and Soul on October 1st. The class was titled
Surreal Uber Painting, and it was everything it claimed to be. The techniques she taught for this type of painting really mesh with my mixed media style. Plus, I love the word Uber....meaning BIG. No teeny weenies for me (the pun is either intentional or not, depending on if you laughed).
I didn't take any pictures of the process because I was so engrossed in creating the piece, and absorbing Traci's awesome energy, that I didn't take a pause to shoot some pics. Know this: I will be utilizing this technique again very soon....thoughts of some collaborative work with my talented friends have been swirling vigorously! And of course, I will keep you all posted.
Traci graciously let me take her picture at the end of class. These are her Surreal Uber creations; the one on our left is in progress, the right is a completed piece.
Traci from another angle. Once I hauled out my camera, some of my fellow classmates started snapping pictures too.
The class was really fun, and you should check out Traci's work using the link at the beginning of this post. She sells some really great things like vibrantly-colored dread ponytails and great stamps, journals etc. Probably the coolest chick I've met from Kansas!

Such fun to read about your class and get to see photos of the two artists together! I love the piece you created and I would sure feel like a lucky duck if I got to be included in any kind of collaborative project you put together (not too subtle). Oh, and how does Champ feel about your little pun?
