New Zealand inspired collage landscapes
COLLAGE &
MIXED MEDIA CLASSES
Over my artstic life I have amassed much too much paper, and imagine many artists can relate to this!
So I decided to put scraps to good use and even recycle my old, not quite making the grade artworks, into collages.
This activity is appealing on many levels but predominantly the pleasure comes from composing the shapes of paper and card onto a picture space - a design activity essentially.
In the collage class, you will learn to design and compose your image by building it up in layers, while considering colour and texture as you would in a painting.
All you need is an outline drawing as a starting point, some interesting papers and/or card, and a sharp pair of scissors or a scalpel.
This form of art appeals to many as it is often quicker to produce a finished collage than a painting.
You can also continue to add other media to your work to create a mixed media piece. Works can be sealed with varnish instead of glassed over for framing, if desired.
1 day workshops are $50 per person
(includes some materials and morning & afternoon teas).
Maximum 12 people per class.
I can arrange to run workshops for groups or businesses both in and outside the Wairarapa region.
Please enquire about any up and coming courses or classes here.
