Help Us Welcome Cindy Kovack!

It's happened again!  The CraftFusion family has grown as another new artist and talented instructor joins the team . . . Cindy Kovack!  Cindy's had the passion to create since childhood.  As a young girl, even though she lacked the funds for her creative projects, that didn't stop her . . . she'd hike to the local dump to salvage reclaimed parts and pieces for her art!  As a self-taught artist who originally learned to paint with house paints and model airplane brushes, she's since fused her love of paint, collage, and upcycling into a way of life.  With the passing of her late husband, she found she was able to channel her grief into her art, and to this day, continues to use her creativity as a form of meditation.  Cindy is also a published artist who has taught painting, drawing, and varied mixed media techniques throughout her career at seminars, educational facilities, galleries, local shops, and retreats.  She's been a featured artist and instructor at Art Unraveled in Phoenix, AZ (2007-2013), Art & Soul in Portland, OR (2013), Artiscape in Dublin, OH (2012-2013), just to name a few.  Several of her art projects have also been published in numerous issues of the Somerset Studio Magazines.  If you love mixed media art as much as Cindy, make your reservations now to spend an exciting day with her in her first Workshop here at CraftFusion as we extend her a warm welcome to our Family!

Saturday ~ January 4, 2014                                               10:30am-3:00pm
"Tenderly"                                                            Cost: $60.00 (includes lunch)

Join Cindy in her first Workshop at CraftFusion and create your own exciting "found object" necklace that was featured in the Somerset Memories Magazine Spring 2013 issue.  Now's the time to dig deep into those memory boxes and pull out a favorite copy of a baby picture (laser) or one that is near and dear to your heart.  Cindy will provide pieces of ephemera to decorate your art piece, but you'll want to bring along small bits and pieces that will bring your piece to life to make your piece unique . . . antique buttons, jewelry from your mother or grandmother or favorite aunt, a key from grandpa's house, that dog tag that means so much from your beloved furry friend, something from your child that needs to see the light of day . . . anything that's special to you and might inspire you.  Your overall finished necklace/art piece will be approximately 3"x7".

Supplies to Bring:  Basic Craft Kit (BCK) including 1" acrylic application brush; Vintage Photo Distress ink pad or your favorite brown ink; Loctite Super Glue (Gel Type); small photos of you as a child or of a loved one, favorite pet, or friend (laser copy) that will fit within a 2" parameter (black & white preferred); corrugated crown (available from CraftFusion).  All other materials and supplies will be provided.
