Collage Creations

Creating collage is fun! It’s an easy and accessible way to express yourself with color, marks, papers, or any common supplies or materials on hand. In this class, you will create a no-sew handmade journal and unique collage papers, and then use your creations to develop one-of-a-kind collages in your journal.

Demonstrations will include a variety of techniques, such as monotype printing, gel plate printing, mark-making, collage design, how to embellish your collage, using supplies you have on hand, and how to create your unique collage papers.
