MINDFUL COLLAGE

Let's Go Inside!

Join me for an afternoon of creative exploration!

This workshop is for anyone interested in more deeply exploring collage or discovering it for the first time. We will work with a wide assortment of colored and textured art papers, scraps of paintings, old book pages, and personal items you choose to add. Collage allows for spontaneous and layered work that can be beautiful, personally meaningful and is fun and easy to do. I will provide cues to help us focus and get started and materials for inspiration. I also share ideas about my process, examples of styles of collage and design concepts to help form your pieces.

Friday, October 25th, 1:30-4:30pm

I have been a working and exhibiting artist for 40 years. I paint, often from photos, using my art to tell stories. I love to incorporate collage in handmade books and multi-layered paintings.

As a longtime meditator I find awareness of my breath to be very helpful in creating art. I was a member of The Girl Artists, a collaborative group whose archives have recently been acquired by The Smithsonian Archives of American Art. My first published pieces of hybrid writing and painting will be in Prism, International in August 2024.

What previous students shared…“The vibe you created helped keep my inevitable self-judgement at bay.”
“Wonderful support and sharing of work and ideas” “Great, inspiring atmosphere!”
