Shirley Pando, Creative Arts Instructor
.jpg)
My name is Shirley Pando and I live in beautiful Longwood, Florida, just
northwest of Orlando. I have been married since 1987 and have three
teenage/adult boys.
I was an Independent Scrapbook
Instructor from 2004-2008 and loved having my own
scrapbook business at home. I have been able to meet many people and
share my passion for a love of family and creating lasting memories for
the generations to come.
I have a great passion for all sorts of paper
arts and mixed media, I teach online art classes at
My Creative Classroom.
There's a great list of new classes coming in September 2009.
Learn something new when you want to and in your p.j.'s!
Some of
my Mixed Media artwork has been published in Somerset Studio Gallery in
the Summer 2009, Summer 2010 and the upcoming Winter 2010 issue. It is truly a dream fulfilled.
When I am not creating something you
can probably find me either walking my black lab, Pepper, or at the
Taekwondo school, among other things, practicing my butterfly kick!! I
am very proud of my 3rd Degree Black Belt!! Not bad for an "old"
gal, huh?!!
