Just a quick note to let you know that a guest instructor will be sharing at Emerald City Tangles Studio this month for the next 10 WEEKS!!
Wilfried Fathi, a local artist with a master of fine arts from Wichita State University, is willing to share his knowledge of paper cutting with a small group of us (Scherenschnitte – it means scissor cuts in German). Many of you may never have heard of the word before but you certainly know what it is once you see it. Remember the snowflakes you used to cut out as a child? That’s a simplified version of it. The art of paper cutting is centuries old, and can be found in most cultures and countries around the world.
We can only accommodate six students for this program so it will be on a first-come, first-served basis.
Once the class fills, a wait list will be started.
This class will be held for 10 weeks on Friday mornings from 10 am – noon, beginning January 29, 2016 through April 1, 2016.
A supply list will be forwarded one week prior to the start of the program.
