Collage Portraits
Monday, April 27
3:00 to 5:30 pm
In this workshop we will be using magazines, paint, gelli plates, markers and more to create your portraits.
We will look at artwork examples from Hannah Hoch, Deborah Roberts, John Stezaker and local artist Deborah Durban. For years, artists have used collage to express themselves and make unexpected juxtapositions of images that create deeper layers of meaning.
Come for this fun, relaxing, no experience needed class. All supplies provided. Feel free to bring your own collage material as well. Old photos, gelli plate prints, and other ephemera you might want to add to your collage.
