Transform art created by the children in your life into a one-of-a-kind collage that celebrates their creativity and gets their art out of the “art bin” and onto your walls as a beautiful and cohesive gallery-style artwork. You bring 30-40 pieces of your child’s artwork - all other supplies included! Students will leave class with a 18x18” ready-to-hang artwork and the skills needed to recreate the process at home for future collages. In this workshop, you will learn about & execute on the following: - Sort through your child’s artwork to select the perfect pieces (class 1) - Arrange artwork composition with guidance on layout and color (class 1-2) - Assemble your collage, understand materials and technique (class 2) - Finish and seal your artwork (class 2) - Add hanging hardware so your piece is ready to display as soon as you get home (class 2)

Mixed media collage is an all levels class exploring how to use painted materials in new ways to create abstract artworks. Students will paint their own collage papers using provided materials such as acrylic paint, watercolor paint, pencil, ink, and charcoal. The painted papers will then be cut/ripped into smaller sections and re-assembled into a different form. Students will learn basic color theory and composition techniques as well as how to apply adhesive to create finished fine art collage pieces on paper. Each student will leave class with 3, 8x10” mixed media collages, matted and ready to gift or pop into a standard frame for display. Led by local artist, Jocelyn Elizabeth
