Spooky!

Decorate your yard with the most terrifying creations your ghoulish mind can conjure. Skulls, spiders, pumpkins and goblets await your bone-chilling touch. Pottery is available for pickup a week after it is painted and Halloween looms, so be sure to come by soon... if you think you can handle it.

Wedding Bells!


We had some exciting news at Brushstrokes this week, they're getting married!

Not one, but two couples are showing their love of pottery and each other.

We still can't say exactly who-- the proposals are still in the works, so keep it hush-hush.



Did you find love at Brushstokes? Let us know in the comments or on Facebook!

We've even started preparing for our new summer camps. Arty Einstein campers will take a look at some of the world's smallest creatures-- phytoplankton!

Glass-tastic!





Glass fusing has arrived!

Just a few weeks into a new venture and our minds are spinning with possibilities!


Glass is more versatile than we imagined. We've seen gorgeous necklaces, dazzling suncatchers and elegant slumped bowls (just to name a few of the fabulous projects our busy community has created).Align Left

It's hard to think of something that this glass can't do. Although I still haven't figure out how to make that glass slipper... maybe in a couple weeks Prince Charming.




Slumping a project gives flat fusing three dimensions



Bedazzle your windows

Ten-year-old Kate certainly has a knack for glass!




Got any ideas for glass fusing? Let us know! Comment, or come by the studio!

Announcing our latest offering: Glass Fusing at Brushstrokes


Join us for an open house this Sunday from 10-2 when we will introduce a new way to make something beautiful at Brushstrokes. Glass fusing is easy and fun -- for artists of all ages.

It's Auction Season

Wow, these auction platters look beautiful. Good work to the ladies at Beth El for pulling together some amazing class projects. I heard they fetched a pretty penny!
