CREATIVITY AND STORYTELLING

I am a storyteller, in constant awe of the beauty and peculiarity of the natural world, and I want to share this with you in my workshops. Across time and cultures, people have carried meaningful objects—talismans, keepsakes, and symbols of identity.

In these workshops, you will learn techniques to transform raw materials into objects infused with personal meaning—chosen, held, and essential.
