installment #1 “Yes I want that drill press and more…” at Art & Soul

 I see the benefit of blogging as you go because I have so many stories and photos that I would love to share with everyone, I think I will try to make several posts in the next few days to cover as much as possible.

 I headed for Portland last Tue the 5th and spent the night with my friend Suzanne in Vancouver she put me up for several nights and the other nights I stayed with Dayna on her boat. Both Dayna and Suzanne took classes and have made posts about them so when you are done here check out their blogs.

  Wednesday was “Yes I want that drill press and more…” a shop class loaded with tools. We built a shadow box from new lumber and decked them out with objects the students brought in. I could not have done this class without the help of Maggie and Gil. Maggie manned the chop saw and was safety guru and Gil was on the circular saw, jig saw and all around tool master.  Suzanne was nice enough to come into this class and take the photos.

I love how the art goes with the artist.



Here we have above the sander, jig saw and drill press being put to work.

 Maggie and Gil help the class get the boxes together.

the final projects turned out GREAT!  

I really think in the next few weeks a few tools will be purchased and put to good use. Thank you class I really had a great time ! 

Tomorrow will be “Can I do that Michelangelo” a wire and clay sculpture class.
