Summer 2026

I am taking a break from teaching classes this summer but remain open to private lessons and coaching. Send me an email if you are interested. pamstratton63@gmail.com.

One of the many things I am working on is to replace the wood stepping stones I had made from tree rings using the Shou Sugi Ban technique. I burned the wood, routed circles and filled them with smalti. If you have been to my studio they looked like this.

Over time car traffic has taken its toll on them, so I ordered tree ring molds from Ukraine and I am making new ones using sand topping and concrete so they will hold up to being driven on.

My Next classes will be in the fall. I hope you can join me for a fun creative day of play in Rockport! I will have a one-day mixed media class on September 26th and a 3-day Make A fish class on October 23-25.

This class will explore the wonderful potential of mixing ceramic, shells, vitreous, smalti and stone. Feel free to bring a personal treasure to add to the mix.

Play with texture and color while focusing on the fundamentals of cutting materials using nippers to create a vibrant 8 x 8 mosaic or 4×12 mosaic in the direct method. Have fun mixing things up! Class is geared to beginner and intermediate mosaic artists, and all levels of experience are welcome.Time: 9:30 AM-5 PM
