Classes offered encourage and inspire people to express themselves through art. Each participant experiences the power of their own individuality and transcends any limitations to creativity. Classes are designed for the non-artist (one who is uncertain about creative skills) and for the artist who wants to explore more fully his or her talent. They are open to both men and women age 18 through 90 who are curious and willing to use art as a form of self-expression. Children's groups may be arranged.
Class information is listed below. Interested in a class not currently offered? Contact Ruth at mail2rutheileen@gmail.com. When enough potential students express interest, a class will be arranged. Have an idea for a class? Contact Ruth Eileen to discuss possibilities. Ruth Eileen also teaches classes in making bookmarks, small easy books, traveling altars, head wreaths and goddess head pieces.
Classes vary in price and time frame. They range from $40 to $90 per person depending on the number of students and where the class is held. Please contact Ruth Eileen for current class offerings
Classes are taught in Ruth Eileen Dorn's art studio and garden in the Talmadge area of San Diego near San Diego State University. They can also be taught in your home for special events or at retreats, picnics and other gatherings. The cost for other venues is negotiable.
