Learn the basic techniques of dot painting as you create a beautiful mandala design on the outside of a porcelain mug. In the first part of class, participants will receive step-by-step guidance while practicing common mandala elements on ceramic tiles.
In the second part of class, participants will work independently to paint the first layer of dots on their mugs, with instructor support available as needed. Mugs will be taken home to allow the paint to fully dry before finishing the top dots and baking them in a home oven to seal the design.
All materials are provided, including one mug per participant. Mugs are approximately 4.5" tall and 4.5" in diameter. Participants are also welcome to bring their own oven-safe mug with a smooth surface of a similar size. This class is open to both beginners and intermediate dot painters.
Class Note: To help us honor 577's commitment to sustainability, please bring your tools if you are a returning participant. New participants will receive a new set of tools to keep.

Community Instructor: Shalene Germani
Shalene is a self-described "non-creative" who has found joy and peace in the art of dot mandalas. A sign language interpreter by profession, with more than twenty years of teaching and mentoring experience, she decided to apply her skills to teaching dot art via Zoom during the pandemic with her online presence, Dotting with Friends. Now she is thrilled to bring the art of dot mandalas live and in-person to the 577 community!
