All materials are supplied for you, although you will bring a few towels (see the list in supply list). In one photo above, you may see two other vessels: one inspired by water and one inspired by stones. We will be concentrating on the forest vessel in this class, but the techniques you learn will apply to any vessel. I will provide you with instructions to create the other vessels at home.

Supply List:

  • 2 old bath towels
  • 5 old dish towels
  • 2 pillowcases or 10 cloth napkins
  • small bowl (1 quart)

Biography: I have been felting for 10 years and teaching felting for 3 years. I am a member of the International Feltmakers Association, and I’m the current IFA Editorial Coordinator of the Felt Matters magazine. I do both needle felting and wet felting and I love working with all the materials I can get my hands on. I have made garments, bags, lighted objects, sculpted pumpkins, and vessels–all from the wonderful wool from sheep. Felting is not the most common art form, so I love to teach classes in Tellico and share the felting world with all who are interested.

Class Content: Dragonflies are symbolic of transition and change. You are invited to change things up a bit by pairing Zentangle with different pens as well as mixed media techniques and materials to create a lovely composition on a traditional surface as well as a translucent background. We will focus on the Zentangle “embedded letters” technique, but instead of letters, our projects will incorporate the dragonfly as a focal point–it could be stamped, stenciled, embossed or collaged… you choose! A glass-backed frame is included with the class so that light can travel through your translucent piece as it would through the delicate wings of a dragonfly. Color might be incorporated into your creation if you wish, as a subtle hint or a bolder statement.

Supply List: All necessary supplies provided in the cost of the class; participants are welcome to bring their favorite pens and colored pencils/chalk pencils if they wish.

Biography: Amy Broady, M.Ed., is a Certified Zentangle Teacher™ and a Veriditas-trained Labyrinth Facilitator. She began her career as a professional art educator in 1995. She has spent most of her school career teaching at the elementary level, but loves teaching adults just as much as she loves teaching children. She started practicing and teaching the Zentangle Method in 2010 to children in the school setting and adults in various community venues as well as at retreats and conferences; she has provided professional development to countless art educators at the local, state, and national levels. Amy is delighted that Zentangle permeates her personal and professional life, creatively, philosophically, and socially as she has made dear friends through her involvement with Zentangle. In 2022 she established her own tiny little art studio, Pen & Path, for helping others begin or progress on their creative journeys through mixed media adventures in Zentangle, labyrinths, and more. Amy doesn’t sell her artwork and rarely displays it in public venues, but derives great joy and satisfaction from her personal practice as well as teaching others.

250520 Image Transfer Techniques for Mixed Media with Pamela Salyer

Art Guild of Tellico Village

Dates: Tuesday, May 20, 2025
Time: 10:00am – 4:00pm
Location: Chota Classroom A

Prerequisites: None

Contact Information: pamelas2art@gmail.com

Cost: $100 (all supplies included)
Class Size: Min 6 Max 10
Sign-up: Registration is closed. Contact Pamela to see if you can be added to the class.
Deadline: May 6, 2025

Cancellation Policy: Participants may cancel up to 14 days prior to the start of the class for a full refund. There will be no refunds within 14 days of the class unless spot can be filled from wait list. To cancel, fill out the class refund request form

Class Content: Image transfers can add layers and dimension to your mixed media projects, making them more exciting, interesting and personal. In this class, we will learn a few different techniques for transferring a variety of images onto mixed media surfaces. We’ll start by preparing the mixed media backgrounds, then transfer images using direct, gelli plate, and solvent transfer methods. Each of these techniques will produce different results, which will add to the creative choices that you have for your mixed media designs.

Supply List: All supplies are provided. You may want to bring your own laser printed or photocopied (i.e., toner based, NOT inkjet) images in various sizes to use for transfers. High contrast images will work best — black & white or color can be used. I will also bring a selection in case anyone forgets.

We will make basic background mixed media surfaces to use and practice on, but if you have anything pre-prepared that you would like to use, bring those along, too.

Please bring your own apron. We will be working with acrylics, which are unforgiving if they get on your clothing.

Biography: I come from a Chemistry and Geology background, but have always had a keen interest in art, and have taken a variety of workshops and classes in different media over the years. In 2015, I was able to take the plunge into art full-time, studying for two years with the Open College of the Arts (based in the UK) before being juried in as a member of the Art Market Gallery in Knoxville in late 2017. My work has been accepted into a number of juried exhibitions in the Knoxville area, including the Arts & Culture Alliance National Juried Exhibition (2020, 2023), Arts in the Airport at McGhee Tyson Airport (2020, 2021, 2023, 2024), The District Gallery’s “The Big Tiny Show” Exhibition (2022, 2023, 2024), and the Arts & Culture Alliance’s “No Bigger than a Breadbox” Exhibition (2021, 2023, 2024). I have also exhibited works locally in Knoxville at the Marble Alley Lofts, the Emporium Gallery, the Mayor’s offices, and Post Modern Spirits, and became a juried member of the Foothills Craft Guild in 2023.

250516 Loosen Up Your Watercolor Landscapes with Martha Kisling

Art Guild of Tellico Village

Dates: Friday, May 16, 2025
Time: 9:00am – 3:00pm
Location: Chota Classroom A

Prerequisites: This class is appropriate for beginning as well as experienced artists.

Contact Information: marthakisling@msn.com

Cost: $50
Class Size: Min 6 Max 16
Sign-up: Registration is closed. Contact Martha to see if you can be added to the class.
Deadline: May 2, 2025

Cancellation Policy: Participants may cancel up to 14 days prior to the start of the class for a full refund. There will be no refunds within 14 days of the class unless spot can be filled from wait list. To cancel, fill out the class refund request form

Class Content: Have fun and learn how to loosen up your landscape paintings using watercolor techniques on gesso coated paper. The white acrylic gesso creates a slick surface which allows for a loose, painterly effect and lets the colors stay bright and true. We will explore using different materials to apply the watercolor and how the paint can be easily lifted off to create bold, white shapes. Because painting on a gessoed surface allows for faster results we should be able to complete 3 or 4 different landscapes.

Demos along with individual help will encourage everyone in their own artistic expression. Beginners as well as experienced artists are welcome.

Supply List: Click here to see list.

Biography: Martha Kisling has over thirty years experience painting in the exciting and spontaneous medium of watercolor. She also enjoys experimenting with acrylics, mixed media, collage and batik. She has taught painting classes and workshops while living in Colorado, South Carolina and now Tennessee and enjoys sharing her personal creative discoveries while encouraging students to develop their own artistic expression. Her original artwork has been exhibited in art shows and galleries.
