Join our Collage @ Home workshop series ,which meets once a month to offer online collage project instruction to spark ideas that keep you creating for the rest of the month. Each workshop includes guided mindfulness meditation as a tool for intentional creativity and artistic focus. Learn to use cut out words in your collage art, as the main design element. Using magazine, newspaper and other printed text , explore creating hidden message collage with words or word fragments that overlap or combine to make a dynamic composition. Study typography or the shapes, curves and lines of letters and fonts, to create a new visual language. Several design exercises will prompt ideas and variations on this theme. Join our growing community of collage and paper lovers, online, to learn and share in an encouraging, supportive, creative community.
