Minute Masterpiece Is About Art & Fun
Margaret Poplin has a unique art business called Minute Masterpiece, in which people with little or no art training are led through a step-by-step teaching process while having a fun night with friends.
All materials are provided for each participant to use. At the end of the night, they can go home with their very own acrylic painting. I took Margaret's class back in November.
I asked Margaret a few questions about her art life and how she got started on the teaching and entrepreneurial path.
