The Shaw-Nasser Mash-Up for March StencilClub

I am mashing it up for StencilClub this March with Mary C. Nasser. Her is what we have in store exclusively for StencilClub members:

We had a blast choosing favorites for the StencilClub exclusive Mash-Up!

Mary's Sea Map and Mary Beth's Shape Shifter Masks merge in a big way for the 9" x 12" stencil.

Mary's Neighborhood grew into a 6" x 6", large enough to enclose a rose from Mary Beth's Web of Roses.

The lines of Rafters, one of the original six stencils created when Mary Beth launched StencilGirl, are emboldened in the mini 4" x 4" stencil.

Get ready for irresistible techniques with these three abstract stencils. They are exclusively for StencilClub members along with the ‘irresistible’ video tutorial and accompanying PDF!

Join the art community that is StencilClub and 

explore techniques with two art mavens as Mary teaches Mary Beth!

Check out these sneak peeks!

My Periodic Table Set & a Mad Scientist Deal

Each periodic table stencil or mask has 118 squares so users can make a table of the known chemical elements however, I plan to use these three in an artfully abstract way.

My Periodic Table Set, perfect for mixed media artists and science teachers, includes:

Periodic Table Stencil – Line it up and use it to outline the Framework or on its own.

Periodic Framework Stencil – Line it up and use it with the Periodic Table Stencil to add colored boxes or on its own.

Periodic Framework Mask – Designed to be used artistically or scientifically. Snip the central motif out and use it in your abstract painting (shown in the video below) or you could line up this mask and use it with the Periodic Table Stencil.

You could purchase the stencils and mask individually but I have a Mad Scientist Deal for you:

I am so excited about the Periodic Table Stencil, Periodic Framework Stencil, and Periodic Framework Mask I am offering them as SET13 for $35!

If you are in StencilClub you can use the discount code and get them for $28!

Happy painting!

What is Creative JumpStart?

Creative JumpStart is a one-of-a-kind online workshop event to jumpstart your creativity in 2021. This year CJS is celebrating the 10 Year Anniversary with even more lessons, giveaways, webinars, and opportunities for YOU to find artistic inspiration and connection with a community of other creatives! Jump with Us!

The theme this year is “Storyteller”

One of the most delightful and powerful qualities of artwork is its ability to communicate diverse ideas and unique perspectives across different audiences. Artists are storytellers who use creative materials to express emotion, document reality, make imagination tangible, and so much more. 

We asked our crew of Mixed Media Artists and Crafters: 

Tell us your story through artwork! Let your project speak about who you are, what moves you, or let it tell whatever story you want to tell. Share with us how you use creative techniques to convey ideas and show us how your thoughts, feelings, or your story resonates in your artwork.

Join us for this 10th Anniversary Year of CJS and learn how different Mixed Media Artists and Crafters translate our theme into their own work, sharing with you their creative process, techniques, tips, tricks, and ideas on how to develop your own style.

This edition of CJS is BIGGER than ever: you get 45 DOWNLOADABLE video lessons for $59 (USD). It’s a great value – at only $1.31 per video it’s a collection of tutorials that you can keep forever, over 8 hours of unique content! And now through December 31st at 11:59pm EST
