• Master the art of combining bold patterns with confidence

• Understand the principles behind successful Art Deco composition

• Blend influences from various design traditions into your own style

• Transform simple materials into sophisticated artwork
  

  
  

Embark on a creative exploration inspired by the playful and profound world of Joan Miró. This workshop unlocks the secrets of symbolic expression and abstract storytelling through:

• Creating personal symbols and developing your visual vocabulary

• Building mysterious and engaging Miró-style backgrounds

• Transforming traditional portraiture into abstract expression

• Developing unique lettering styles that enhance meaning

• Combining elements to create cohesive and expressive journal pages

Join us Saturday, March 29 in making a series of Artist Trading Cards - mini, one-of-a-kind mixed media artworks created to share with other artists. We'll make some of our own collage materials and combine them with other collage to create mixed media ATCs. All supplies provided.

Working on a cohesive series is the focus of this workshop. You will be provided with 6 panels and we will curate papers (painted and printed) and other ephemera, paint and marks to create a series of collage that is harmonious

We start with a parent sheet, richly layered with paper, paint and marks. A bit of folding, cutting and glueing to turn your parent sheet into a complete journal with pages ready to continue to create on.
