This is the follow-up to my Abstract Collage Workshop. You will need the collage you created in this previous class or any other collage you’ve made, preferably on a sturdy and durable surface like wood. If you don’t have a collage, I will provide one for you.

You will learn mixed media techniques to add to your collage design such as adding shapes and colors with paint and oil pastels, layering and editing, creating translucent layered effects, glazing, scrapping, and adding textures and patterns.

This workshop is appropriate for artists working with collage, journaling, altered books, and mixed media painting. It is part of my abstract collage series but it can also be taken on its own.

My intent is to provide a non-judgmental and supportive setting where participants can challenge themselves to respond intuitively to art, unleash their creativity, and ask a lot of questions.

We will discuss materials and techniques however you might not end up with a finished piece as the focus is more on experimentation.

Be prepared to play, get messy, and unleash your creativity!

Please note that this is NOT a collage making class.
