In this workshop, create mixed media paintings that combine drawing, painting and collage. We will begin making a series of drawings from life or from your imagination. There will be flowers available for reference. Taking these drawings, you will then use paint and different papers to compose paintings. There will be lots of papers available, but you may want to add your own. Old letters, book pages, prints, photos or other found papers would be great.
Materials to bring:
- No experience necessary. All materials will be provided.
- Optional: Old letters, book pages, prints, photos or other found papers you wish to include in your collage
Cost:
- NAA Members: $75
- Non-members: $95
