Oklahoma Teen Advisory Council

So, I have been bragging about my daughters and how tremendously talented they are, right?. This is one of Alexia's digital works. She also does drawings and ink works also.

I hope to see you there. Later on, I want to teach an adult (16+ yr. olds) enamel class. I love working with enamels, but not very many places teach it
