On Saturday, January 25th, from 9:00 am to 12:00 noon, I will host my first free "Open Studio" for a maximum of four artists. This is an opportunity to meet and share your artwork in progress, ask questions, watch me demonstrate the Icarus technique and try the Icarus board.
I will have boards set-up for all attendees, plus some basic supplies and refreshments. To sign up please email me at esterroi@gmail. com.
This event is on a first-come, first-served basis, so if you don't make this one there will be more announced regularly on my blog and Facebook.
Bring:
- your artwork, finished or in progress
- your colored pencils in use
- your questions
-
your curiosity
I'm looking forward to seeing you on January 25th!

OH, to be one of those lucky Artists who live close enough to visit your Studio. They are certainly lucky indeed. Ester, you are such a kind, funny and talented Artist. Someday I will be there,

I AM close enough, and would love to be included, if not in this open studio, soon. I am sure people are beating down the door, or crying because they are not near you!

I just read my email. Have been in Florida visiting the family.
I would love to be one of the lucky ones also, but understand if you are already booked. I will be at the ready when and if there are any last minute cancels.
Keep me in mind when your next demonstration happens
Would love seeing you again Ester

Hi Sandra, an Icarus board is a heated drawing board used with wax-based drawing media like colored pencils, wax crayons and oil pastels. You can find more information on: http://icarusart.net/
Thank you for your interest!

Is there still an opening? I live in Oregon, but I am from Ventura, Ca. I have family I could stay with if I could come. I fell in love with your board and want to get one. I do wildlife and pet portraits. I am a new artist and have only been drawing for a little over a year. Color pencil is my new love. Susie Kirkland
