Grade 9- Adult

Explore the possibilities that arise when making art from non-traditional materials, and learn to masterfully blend different mediums together to form a unified artwork.  We will consider how collage and assemblage art is "built" like a sculpture on a 2D surface, and a sense of play and experimentation will be encouraged.  There will be new options to work from each week, including paper/found images, cardboard, fabric, duct tape, glitter, and more!  Subject matter will range from the abstract to the representational.  The history of collage as a medium will be discussed, and why it is relevant today.  All skill levels welcome!

11:00 - 1:00 pm, Saturdays, March 2, 9, 16, 23.

Rust is not always a good thing, but we will turn it into an art form. We will print on several kinds of paper using rusted metal items as our medium. Once our papers have been dyed/printed, we will create a simple mixed media book to showcase our work. This four-week class teaches an unexpected process using ordinary rusting metal objects revealing there is beauty in just about everything, including rust. We will learn how to get multiple colors from rust including a greenish-blue verdigris. Using collage, stitching, and simple bookmaking techniques we will create our finished project. It's a fun class that lets you think out of the box in the world of mediums for creating!
