SK-06-22 Creating A Collage Book with Sherry Kimmel

CREATING A COLLAGE BOOK with Sherry Kimmel

In this workshop students will create an accordion-style collage book that tells a story about a favorite artist, a family event or a special trip.
Using collage paper, color pictures, embellishments, and paint students will be able to create textures, text, and layering for depth to create a one-of-a-kind collage art book. This is a great course for students who have a collection of photos, painted papers or paper keepsakes that need a good home to display their beauty. Previous experience is not necessary, however the class will be a great opportunity for students who have previously taken Gelli Printing with Sherry Kimmel to put all your beautiful mono prints to use in a cohesive work of art.
Come join the fun in exploring " The Art of Collage".

All levels are welcome.

PRCD-12-22 Marbling & Collage on Rice Paper with Pam Root & Candice Diaz

MARBLING & COLLAGE ON RICE PAPER with Pam Root & Candice Diaz

This fun and enlightening workshop focuses on Experimental Chinese Marbling and Watercolor Painting Techniques. Students will incorporate collage pieces that have been made by painting rice paper. In this workshop students will have fun working loosely, while using their newly learned skills to create artwork without any pre-planning!

On the first day, students will see a one-of-a kind work of art evolve before their eyes as they dip rice paper in water and ink. They will also learn how to master rice paper marbling using just Sumi ink. After the marbleized pieces dry, on Day Two, students will begin to see images and abstract areas that can be enhanced with painting or collage with watercolor and acrylic.

Finished marbled paper can also be used as bookmarks, note cards and much more. Students are able to bring their own watercolor and acrylic supplies, but it is not required. Rice paper and ink will be provided
