Beginners and career artists alike will enjoy this unique dive into mixed media collage with visiting artist Laura Raborn!
Get your scissors and glue ready! In this one-day immersion we will learn how to tell a story using personal photos, photocopies, book pages, music sheets, fabric, receipts, old drawings, tickets, maps, newspaper clippings, magazine images, text, and anything that you can cut out and glue down into your two-dimensional work surface. We will also practice a popular image transfer technique and compare the results to collage to discover exciting ways to use both methods.
Often, when playing with collage items, a message or theme develops, seemingly like magic. Playing with collage elements can help us tap into our inner thoughts, memories, and creativity. The compositions can unfold as we experiment and help us realize what we think, rather than executing a predetermined vision for our artwork. Explore how content and meaning change as you shift and play with color, scale, texture and subject matter.
This class is for all levels.
