It's the May 2020 Art Bundle for Good Giveaway!

Remaining positive and moving forward even in difficult times is important. For a bit, we were not sure this was going to happen, but it is!

Here is another chance to win all 102 art courses and resources if you missed out on Art Bundle for Good #4 this past November. 

It doesn’t cost anything to enter, so don’t miss out. 

The Art Bundle Giveaway only lasts for 7 days, starting today! 

Three lucky winners will have a chance to win the entire Art Bundle for Good #4 including $4,000 worth of art-related courses, workbooks, and other great resources. 

Twenty-five percent of the profits go to support Courageous Kitchen, a Bangkok based charity helping refugees. 

Here's what people had to say about the Bundle:

• "What I really love about these bundles is that you get emerged in so many ways of working. You see so much more possibilities you can discover and develop. It's like a big basket of creative fruits." ~ Antonyeta D
• "My thoughts on your ART BUNDLE are ...... it's phenomenal.  I'm very skeptical and usually ignore those types of offers, but it has given me the opportunity to connect with new artists that I would not have found otherwise. It's truly a remarkable opportunity to connect with an art community that might not be found otherwise.  It has provided a fabulous opportunity for learning and inspiration.....and fun!"  ~Julie C.

My courses*, Simple Improv Bookmaking and Gel Printing & Printmaking received rave reviews too!

• "In this course Mary Beth Shaw teaches how much more you can do with gelli plates and stencils. If you have never used a gelli plate, or think you need to learn more, or think you already know everything about gelli printing then this is a course for you. Mary Beth takes gelli printing and print making to another level and you just have to see what she does with double sided tape." ~Lucy T
• "well, it is almost impossible to stop once this interaction is exploding right before your eyes! Mary Beth makes it seem like child play and in essence it is so much fun to address it as adult play and engage fully with all those lines, circles and fabulous colors. Totally unique and completely original. Relax, this is your time and enjoy each precious moment!" ~Rita

Quick update on 2020 classes that are still available for registration:

Beyond the Surface: Next Level Art Journal in Prescott, AZ 

May 2-3, 2020

There is just 1 opening available. This class is at my friend Kat Kirby's studio and I am limiting enrollment to keep the size small. I've heard lovely things about Prescott and can't wait to visit. 

Artwalk Italy in, well, ITALY!!!!!

September 13-23, 2020

There are only 3 spots left. Bucket-list Italy; I talked with Jeannette & Suzy (our travel mavens) about the places I hadn't been, my A-list destinations. You see, they live in Italy and they know this country like nobody's business. They put together the trip of a lifetime. 

Seriously. 

I'll be frank, I was nervous when I traveled with them the first time because I had never done a tour before and was afraid it would be too tour-like, you know what I mean?? But they are absolutely the best of the best and provide an insider's experience is truly special. 

Plus you get to make art with me and 11 other like-minded peeps. 

And it's Italy, people!!!

Swoon.

Spontaneous Intent in Paducah, KY

October 23-25, 2020

This workshop opened just a few days ago and is half sold out which is kinda blowing my mind. It's going to be fun; you know how much I love Kristin (owner of Ephemera Paducah), her sweet shop and interesting town. Lovelovelove.

At the Improv - with Seth Apter in Albuquerque, NM
November 13-15, 2020
Details are coming soon, if you are interested, post a comment along with your email and I will make sure you are added to the list. 

......and that's it. Everything else is sold out and I simply don't have the capacity to add more due to family issues and the wild growth of SGP (a good thing). You can still find me online of course, at our ever-popular StencilGirl Studio or teaching for Wanderlust in 2020, where signup also gets you a freebie bonus class from me over at the StencilGirl Studio, so it's quite a good deal. 

I hope to see you either in person or online!!!
