Designed to broaden your horizons and free your mind. It's a playful class with demos and talks on mediums (we'll go over at least 20), papers, and a lot of various techniques for using all these things. We will transform all your bought collage papers (you know the ones you bought when you didn't know any better) and turn them into your own unique designs. We'll also touch on organizational skills and a way of logging your paintings and keeping track of them. Time permitting we'll touch on transfers. This is not a class to make a Masterpiece --- it's a class to have fun and explore!!!
