🎨 About the Workshop: Join us to learn and explore using watercolor painting on dried tea bags! We can’t wait to see what expressive ideas are created on such a small canvas. Tea bags and other supplies are provided.

 

🎨 About the Artist Mentor: Ruby Silvious gained international recognition for her miniature paintings and collages on used tea bags in 2015. Her paintings on tea bags, some inspired by her art residences and travels around the world, have been featured in numerous publications including CNN Travel, Vogue Italia, Cosmopolitan China, Disney Malaysia, The Guardian, Der Spiegel, Good Morning America/ABC News, National Geographic Kids, and the internationally syndicated Ripley’s Believe it or Not. 


Last year, Silvious was one of the co-curators and exhibiting artists for the “threads” exhibit at ACG, in celebration of Asian American Pacific Islander Heritage Month. Silvious was also recently recognized at ACG’s Art All About It! Gala as the 2024 recipient of the Mona Ruth Brickman Memorial Artist of the Year.

 

The workshop is free, and there is limited space in order to foster a proactive learning environment. Registration is REQUIRED.
