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.

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.
Lovely results from those attending the workshop. Congratulations! A good teacher also! Mary Ross
