June 10th 10am-4pm

Instructor: Glenda Goodrich

In this fun and light workshop we will explore true mixed media. Combining paint, papers, stenciling, and Posca pens, we will create pieces ranging from whimsical to serene, from birds to bouquets. Come engage in this critic-free environment that encourages relaxed playful expression. No drawing or collage experience needed. Please note we will break for lunch for about 30-45 minutes.



WHAT TO BRING TO CLASS:

  1. Fluid Matte (if you want non-shiny) or Gloss (if you want shiny) medium; the best brands are Golden and Liquitex.
  2. Substrate (backing) for your art which can be: stretched canvas, art board or canvas board; Recommend 12” x 12” or 9” x 12"
  3. Various papers for collage including some light, medium and dark tones; handmade and scrapbook papers work well, and old sheet music and maps are great.
  4. Acrylic paints – 5-7 colors that you like, including at least one lighter and one darker tone. A couple of the paints should be transparent fluid acrylics. You can tell they are transparent if the black bars show through the paint example on the label (on the Golden brand).

  8. Scissors.
