Playing cards offer the artist a wonderland for artistic creativity: the well-known format and imagery offer both established conventions and plenty of room for interpretation and re-invention. We’ll learn about the history of the now-familiar designs – then explore creating both our own card designs (traditional and very much not) and wider-ranging artworks harnessing aspects of cards whilst extending your creative scope.

With her trademark blend of inspiring masterworks, fun and challenging exercises and plenty of laughter, Kat will have you making new and interesting works rooted in a time-honoured tradition.
Pull up a chair and let me deal you in!

Working from the comfort of your own home/studio, you’ll connect with fellow artists through group discussions and real-time exercises during each class, as well as working on a project on your own time between classes.
We will be on the easy-to-use Zoom online meeting platform.

The course is accompanied by a private Reddit Community where you can upload your finished or in-progress homework, plus see and comment on your fellow classmates’ work. It’s a lively, collegial safe space to share your work, and I offer comments on all work posted.

Recordings of live sessions are made available to all participants, so if you can't make the live time slot, you can watch it later.

Video-only Version: $132.00
The only difference is that you don't join us for the live Zoom class, but rather watch the video replay, which I make available to all enrolled students shortly after each class. You're able to join the private Facebook group (for sharing, support and feedback with/from your fellow students as well as me) and you can email me one or two questions a week to be addressed during class if desired.

Cost: $160 for 4 live classes,
$132 for video-only version
