Do you feel stuck and ready to explore? Collage and mixed media can often be a catalyst for change in your work, and a refreshing way to handle familiar media. Students from all art backgrounds and experience are welcome in this workshop that explores a range of materials with which to take chances and perhaps change direction. We will work with different papers, your own discarded art, as well as any water-based media. Students will work towards developing subject matter to create a sense of continuity in a larger body of work.
