This class and presentation explores limitless  arrangements of mixed media via found, recycled, repurposed, re-determined, reformed, and rethought objects. Moreover, the workshop considers various ways to upcycle old and new articles and particles, parts and pieces --and sometimes (otherwise) another person's junk or trash, into beautiful, useful, soulful, works of unique art. This class/workshop promises to open one's artistic ambitions, while combining creative ways to recognize environmental management and conservancy. Repurpose your Sunday afternoons and regenerate your focus in life. Fortunes of fun to be found and reprocessed. Bring your own materials and/or delve into an assortment of eclectic pieces provided from a lifetime of collecting.

Recent Presentation at Iola Roberts Elementary School (Pell City, AL)

On March 2nd I had the wonderful privilege to visit Iola Roberts Elementary School in Pell City. Ms. Gamble's kindergarten class was dynamite! We talked about drums/percussion, its history, played some rhythms, dropped some beats, created our own new drums and percussion instruments, and possibly disrupted adjoining classrooms. We had FUN! Special THANKS goes out to Brandy Hug for setting this up, being a wonderful assistant and creative director. I hope to go back to visit the classes at Iola Roberts soon. 

. . . . and the beat goes on, and on and on. . . . . .
