Rebecca-Swain Grant

Mosaic Demonstration

We had a truly memorable three day workshop with Connie Hendrix! It was memorable in that we learned a lot that we’ll always remember, and we had an enjoyable friendly creative time together. We watched on the last day as this striking waterfall painting grew in front of our eyes, with the use of two colors, a paint brush, and a razor blade. Amazing.
