The Creatives...New Collective

 I am delighted to announce a new collective in Madison,  "The Creatives".  A small group of artists who appreciate whimsy & friendship have decided to get together to share their skills, knowledge, and have fun while they are doing it!

The focus of the group will be to have workshops, events, mentoring classes & above all, celebrate ART! 

One of the artists I would like to highlight today is Susan Kelley. Many Madisonians already know Susan because of her talent for making wedding cakes. In this chapter of her life, she is exploring another talent by upcycling jewelry. Susan finds pieces everywhere...from estate sales to antique stores. Her latest venture is "cat" earrings with a few necklaces thrown in. Here is Susan in her studio with a few of her new pieces.
