Service Description

This 2 day workshop will cover how to create a painting that explores “past and present” themes using collage processes. Collage is a powerful way to juxtapose the past with the present, memory and reality. You will be shown step by step how to develop this theme using collage techniques. We will create a range of collages using a variety of strategies and approaches that include composition, the use of symbols, text, layering and texture(s). These methods will be useful to begin a painting using the collage as a reference, and or collage as a base for a developing a painted composition.
