MIXED MEDIA MADNESS
A workshop run for BOP members and general public -everyone welcome - Held at the Bannockburn Cultural Center
Love mixed media?
Want to learn how to combine paper, printmaking, Perspex, textiles found objects and more into an artwork? Come and get inspired and have a whole lot of fun whilst also learning techniques to combine media.
Come and learn with Professional artist Samantha Thompson, who has been producing work and exhibiting fine art for over 18 years. Over many years of practice, and in the design industry, she has acquired knowledge about multiple medias, aided through 3 years at RMIT studying "Textile Design"
The work shop is all inclusive (material supplied) however if you have special things from home please bring them!
Things covered in the workshop include, simple printmaking techniques with Lino and other stamps. Ink/pastel/chalk etc on paper, create images in which to cut out. Which supplies to use, how to balance and create interest in your mixed media piece. Select from a supplied variety of printed paper. How to create depth in your work using Perspex and other tricks.
I'm hoping everyone has a finished piece by the end of the work shop, or close too!
This class is great for artists, crafty people, scrapbookers and people that want to learn something new. No experience required.
