How is the content delivered?

Great question.  Each day you will receive an email with the link to the private classroom. There you will find written text and a video of the day’s lesson.  I believe that the best way for you to improve your stencil making skills is to cut a lot. So the videos are short and meant to inspire you to action.

Questions can be asked and answered in the classroom or on the private Facebook Group.  The Facebook Group is a rich supportive resource that I suggest you become a part of, but it is not required.  It is quite simple to be part of the group.  You just need a personal profile and then I can add you to the group.  There is no need to “friend” people.

What type of computer or online skills do I need to participate?

You will need high speed internet access so that you can stream videos.  All group conversations will be on a private Facebook page.  You do not have to join the Facebook group but it will contain valuable discussions and learning.

How are payments handled?

Paypal and major credit cards through pay pal.

Who is this class for?

THE MAKE STENCIL WORKSHOP is for anyone who would like to learn more about making their own stencils for a variety of art making styles. You could be a complete newbie or you may be a seasoned teacher looking for new approaches and ideas. Stencils can be the foundation of many types of art making from fiber, to book making to cards and posters. I have even stencils the city streets.

Does the class meet at a certain time?

After the daily videos and lessons are released, you will be able to access the information at any time that is convenient to you.

Does it matter what part of the world am I in?

You can be where you are and that is perfect. I am on the East Coast of the United States.

How much time is required each day?

Hmmm. Required is a strong word. You get out of it what you put into it. So that said, nothing is ever required. My hope is that you will be able to use this course to commit extra time to your art practice.

I have planned on 3 days of “lessons” actionable content and 2 days of thought provoking support. I am hoping that this structure will give you more time to make stencils, stay interested and get the most from the course. My guess would be 2-3 afternoons each week.

How long will I have access to the materials?

You will be able to download all material so that you could access them for as long as you would like. The Make Stencil Workshop course site will remain available to you for 6 months after the class ends.  The private Facebook group could be active for as long as participants choose.

What happens after I register for the course?

Thank-You and Welcome!   Very shortly you will receive more information about gathering your supplies.   Shortly before the start day you will receive password and access to the class website, and facebook page.
