Want to add excitement to your projects? Go 3D in a good way. This process can be used in collage, mixed media, journals, art books, artist trading cards and other creative activities. We will assemble small compositions and experiment with exercises that help expand your creative techniques. Once the workshop is completed, you will have many ideas on how to proceed and build on what you have learned.
This workshop is largely a process class, but you will end up with elements to use in future work. While producing 3D elements, we will manipulate fabric, paper and other items, layering, wrapping, stringing, etc. Each student will bring their own special style to the elements created. Participants will be encouraged to develop their own interpretation of the ideas presented.
Join us and enjoy a world of discovery. Stretch, as your imagination leads you through the exercises to expand your creativity.
