About this Event
Class Description:
Create a meaningful experience and lasting keepsake in this unique, hands-on workshop designed for two.
Each ticket admits a pair, whether parent and child, friends, or partners, to collaborate on painting and customizing a beautiful matted frame together.
Once your frame is complete, step in front of the camera for a 10-minute mini photo session to capture your connection. Afterward, you’ll receive access to a private online gallery featuring five professionally edited images.
Select your favorite photo to be printed as an 8×10, perfectly sized to complement your custom frame, creating a one-of-a-kind piece you’ll cherish for years to come.
Finished prints will be available for pickup at the workshop location approximately two weeks after your session. For added convenience, prints can also be shipped directly to you for a $5 mailing fee.
About the Instructor:
Lindsay Sheldon began creating The Paper Darlings by pure serendipity. One summer's day she gathered her art supplies and sat by the Capitol to sketch the landmark, but after failing at the first try, she changed course and whipped up a small painting of three friends sitting next to each other in swimsuits.
She held it up to the Capitol’s reflecting pool, snapped a photo and shared it. People began referring to the painted sunbathers as paper dolls and soon after The Paper Darlings was born. Now over six years later, her paintings have found homes across the globe and she continues to create new works as a mixed media artist, incorporating watercolor, ink, acrylic, oil and wax pastels into her art.
