I know it’s a little late, but if you would like to join the fun, just leave a comment here! I will pick two winners randomly about 6 hours from now (or 5pm PST today).
NOTE: If you already signed up, go ahead and comment for a chance to win any other class of your choice. 😀
Hi there! The winners, randomly picked, were #57 and #49, debbi g and melisa. Thank you everyone who posted, and thank you so much again for reading my blog!

Hi Carla, I would like to take part on behalf of a friend (I’m already busy painting and drawing and having lots of fun!). In case I’m the lucky winner, I would love to give it to Petra Ja. She’s hiking in the Himalayan currently and she made up the “Gourmandinet” Project, which is fun,fun, fun. So it would be a great present for her!
Kind wishes,
eva

I would love to win this class! (or any other for that matter). Went off to the library today to study illustrations – did you know that Tomie dePaola wrote a book about him as a child wanting to be an artist? It’s called The Art Lesson. His expressions are wonderful, absolutely minimal facial features.

balakamalini said:
First of all WOW! Thank you for this opportunity. It is incredibly generous. I would love the opportunity to participate in your art camp. I’ve been investigating the people you have presenting, look at how they create and what they create. Camp would be a great learning experience for me as I am just tapping into my creativity and it would help me to learn new techniques and get new ideas. Debbie
English quilter said:
I am an art novice but it looks like fun and fairly loose art. It would make my day to win something—I just spent 2 hours in a doctor’s office…and the things going on there made me very upset.
siebensachen said:
I would love summer camp but from switzerland it is impossible. I love your black and blue painting!

Susan Keister said:
Because you are such a generous fairy tale teacher it seems that whoever you hire is too. Something about “the rubbing off” effect. Finished Lynn’s class and the site is still buzzing. Thanks, Carla, for your awesome online classes.
Kelly said:
What a delightfully kind and sweet gesture…I come here quite often with my cup of tea and do so enjoy your webular space;) I loved loved that you were offering this Summer fun, however, with kids camps and them in tow, I could not swing, so here is me sitting with fingers crossed and hoping maybe I’ll be picked for this awesome adventure in creative bliss!:) Thank you kindly for the chance!

This would be lots of fun!
jo said:
Hi Carla. How I’d love to join you…..I just finished Lynn Whipple’s brilliant course with you and feel I’m on a roll. Lynn was fantastic. And to think I was in Winter Park, Florida, on holiday just a month ago (right before the course started) and could have visited Lynn’s studio – well, I was crazy disappointed! Have been continuing with Lynn’s ideas and it’s just such fun. I did look up all the other artists in the ‘summer art camp’ and they look amazing. I so wanted to enrol, but because I’m taking an online course with Sarah Ahearn Bellemare right now, I felt uncomfortable about spending more on myself. However, if I were lucky enough to join the camp it would fit in beautifully as my 3 weeks with Sarah ends this week. Oh, how gorgeous it would be. However, I am just so grateful to have taken your classes in the past and wish everyone lots of luck for your lovely give-away! Love and silliness….jo xo

Love it here. It’s one of the cheers for me in this recent troubling life….
