We are located on twenty, beautiful acres just north of Huntsville, Texas. In January 2008, we finished our studio and are now open for classes. Opportunities to study with other visiting artists will offer a wide variety of classes from which to choose. Commissioned art pieces, custom tile murals, and original art pieces are available through our studio.
What makes our classes stand out from the all the others? We try really hard to give our students more than what they might expect. Our new studio is beautiful and set in a lovely, wooded area conducive to creating something beautiful. The class size is limited to usually 6, but no more than 8. Each student has 3' of working space and a whole set of new tools and supplies. Our classes are well-prepared, organized, and full of information. THEY START ON TIME! They do not always end on time if our students need an extra hour to finish....we stay with you.
We look forward to working with clients and fellow students of the arts and appreciate all comments, questions, and information. Please feel free to contact us at any time.
For questions concerning workshops, please contact us through the contact page of this website or phone us at 936-291-0975 and leave a message. Please speak slowly and repeat your name and number to assure that we hear it correctly. Thanks!

Explanation of fees charges for workshops
Because our workshops usually entail creating large, intricate and difficult panels, we realize that they should be 5 day workshops instead of 4, or 6 day instead of 5. Most of our students come from out of state or far enough away that they must spend the night locally, and that is costly. Therefore, John and I have decided to increase the hours per day from our usual 10 - 5 w/an hour for lunch to 9 - 5:30 or 6 if needed to help w/the financial output that our students make by cutting one day of class when possible. Even though we have increased the daily cost of class, it is still significantly less for the whole class when hotel , car and food cost for another day are considered.

*Note for all classes.
Because of the size of the piece and the days needed to fire, the class must be either a Sat. and Sun. off Mon. for firing, and Tues., Wed., finishing on Thurs. or even Fri. if necessary. If there is a need for Fri., an additional day's charge will be assessed. Due to the nature of the piece and each individual's pace, it is difficult to determine how many days will be needed. Also, available is Sat. and Sun., break for firing for the week, and students will return for the next Sat., Sun., and Mon. or even Tues. if necessary.
