Come as You Art
About Come as You Art
It's time to get your hands dirty and make some ugly art. In these 60-minute studio/virtual sessions, you'll make intentionally ugly visual art among creative peers before sharing your monstrosity with the group.
The crafting will be fun, yes, but Come As You Art is all about your body practicing how it feels to make and show off imperfection.
Because practice makes . . . you know what I mean.
Come as You Art is currently on pause as of 2026 and may come back as a Substack Live event in the near future.
Sign up for my Substack to stay in the loop.
In the meantime, come check out my other events in Tacoma!

Ugly art is the gift that keeps on giving. I went to a beginner mosaic class this weekend and had the best time because I wasn't worried about my piece being perfect! Someone in the class asked my secret because I was having fun and making progress, and I said my friend Lore tells me to make ugly art, just create, that's what matters!

"First thought was—this is so much more fun. I told myself to do the first thing that came to mind each time. Let the ideas flow and focused more on finishing something than waiting until I had the perfect idea or concept."
