Clay Creations
With Lisa Agaran
Non-Zoomer option: If you are unable to make the live workshop on Zoom or prefer not to appear on Zoom, not a problem. Instead you can do the workshop through the recordings, which is emailed to all attendees at the end of the day. This recording will be available to re-watch up to 4 weeks after the workshop has ended.
Creating your own custom found objects can give your mixed media artwork a look and style that’s uniquely your own. Join me in this fun and easy workshop where we will create our own clay creations. Through the use of air drying clay, we will hand mold our clay findings. Then once dried we incorporate color through the use of acrylic paintings to make our clay creations look weathered, worn or ancient. We then pull it all together to create a finished project by incorporating collage materials and more. The week in between the two sessions will be used for clay drying time. Adults 18+
