Design and Composition in Narrative Collage
Adult Course | Available
Collage is a very accessible and bold art medium, but it often can become a confusing mass of images. In this two-day workshop, we’ll focus on strong design to make your work easy to “read,” as we learn about the history and possibilities for story telling in cut paper.
Our focus will be organizing a picture space to visually document a personal experience, memory, or story with color, shape, image and strong composition.
We’ll zero in on the specifics of your stories and the best way to communicate them.
Various collage techniques including: image transfer, clean cutting, various papers, and glues will be demonstrated throughout the class.
No experience is necessary. All materials included, although we will discuss adding your own collected personal pieces for the second class.
