Blog Tour Week #4 - Claudine Hellmuth

One of the very first classes I ever took was with Claudine Hellmuth many years ago. I knew very little about collage but I learned fast (cause she is a great teacher) and I was quite determined because I found a true love in mixed media, especially painting.

Claudine and I have kept in touch through the years and I invited her to be in my book because, well, because I like her for one thing. But I also have such respect for her art and all the success she has experienced at such a young age (to which I say Bravo!).

So this week my book visits her her blog along with (you guessed it!) a give away, really TWO give aways! Claudine has donated a package of her Sticky Back canvas for Give Away #1,so leave me a comment and you will be entered in that contest.
Then, go on over to Claudine's blog and you will be entered for the book. We will pick names on Friday at 5pm est.

The Video is all about Claudine's paints. Love them!! Hope you enjoy. Now go paint.

Yippee, we have a winner. Using the Random number generator at Random.org we have #30. Congratulations to Pupton!!!

  1. Your book finally arrived and I've been eating my way through it, savouring every morsel :-)
    I've learned a lot from Claudine through her books and I know her paint line would have the same stamp of excellence.

    I just finished reading your book--was unable to savor every morsel as Bren is--gobbled it up in 3 lunch periods at work!! I will definitely be going back for 2nds and 3rds!! I can't wait to get some of that Wood Icing and try it out for myself!! You are an awesome artist and have put together an awesome book. Thank you--I've been in kind of a slump lately and now I am INSPIRED to get back to my art table!!
