If you like painting, collage, drawing, mixed media or assemblage, this is an opportunity to enlarge your story by expanding from two dimensions into three. In this fun workshop, we will take our images and mark making and apply them onto three dimensional wooden forms, experimenting with how to connect them visually and thematically. You can use images that are abstract, representational, or even family photos to create art pieces that are fun, unique and sculptural. Materials fee includes: 6″ wooden boxes, various additional wooden blocks and trim pieces, collage papers, fabrics, trims, lace, laser copies and polycrylic for image transfers onto wood, wood glue, gesso, sandpaper, waxed paper, and foam brushes.
