Meet Nancy Calvert,
"I’ve always loved to make things from a young age. In the past 10 years I enjoyed making books. I’ve taught gelli-printing classes at Crossroads Arts Council and we then make books out of the pages that are printed. Another class was coffee printing and we made books again. I’ve introduced students to Meditative Nuerographic Art and Kandinsky Circles. I’ve been playing with making smaller books they are quite fun to make. I have myself surrounded with paints, brushes, scissors and glues. I’ve learned that a project starts out one way in your mind, but takes a few twists and turns as you're working on it and am amazed of the outcome.
If you have an interest in any classes I mentioned, I will schedule a class for 4-6 students."
Have a Great Day!
Nancy ❤️
