Create It Collage It (Part 2)

Join me in another fun & creative workshop where you create more custom collage papers for your collection. This is part 2 to the original Create It Collage It workshop. But you don’t need to have taken Part 1 to attend this class. You can jump right in.
What makes your mixed media artwork 100% original and unique is creating your own collage materials. This approach moves you beyond pre-designed stencils or patterns that have been duplicated by other mixed media artists. Each of us has our own artistic preferences when it comes to color schemes, certain patterns and designs. This influences our unique artistic style. Therefore, when you create your own collage materials, they are infused with decisions and choices that you made during the creative process. This is uniquely your own. Having a nice collection of your own custom collage materials provides a wider selection to choose from when you’re working on your mixed media projects.
I will take you through additional techniques to create more stamp designs so you can further explore Gelli printing. Then we’ll pull it all together to create a fun accordion folding piece. Adults 18+
Non-Zoomer option: If you are unable to make the live workshop or prefer not to appear on Zoom, not a problem. Instead you can do the workshop through the recording, 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.
