Collage Creativity.

It was another wonderful day in the studio yesterday as four keen, creative people gathered to take part in the Creating Mixed Media Collage workshop.



We worked on 18" x 14" gallery canvases, beginning by laying down a layer of collage elements to create a background.



Next? A layer of paint, blending and scrubbing with brushes... dark and light areas for contrast.


I am constantly amazed and excited to see how every person expresses themselves in such different ways. Everyone created a unique piece while using the same techniques.

 It was a day full of play, creative energy and exploration. Well done, everyone!


THERE ARE STILL SPOTS LEFT FOR NEXT WEEKEND'S WORKSHOP.  JOIN US!

The next Fabulous Workshop happens on Aug 3 & 4 - Creating Stamps, Stencils & Collage Papers.
Do you love painted and patterned collage papers? Do you want to create original papers with your own hand-cut stamps, stencils and everyday objects? Join mixed me for this two day workshop - absolutely no experience required!

You will: transfer patterns onto softoleum; hand cut your own stamps; hand cut stencils from plastic stencil blanks; explore the use of everyday objects for pattern-making; use your newly made stamps and stencils to print fabulous collage papers with acrylic paint; discover imagery resources; play with brayer printing techniques.
