- **Event Start and End Date**: Sat, 25 Apr, 2026 at 09:00 am – Sat, 25 Apr, 2026 at 02:00 pm (-05:00)
- **Event Description**: Abstract Collage Self-Portrait Workshop

Join us for an immersive creative experience where art, storytelling, and self-expression come together.

In this six-hour mixed media workshop, you’ll learn how to create a deeply personal self-portrait using layered painting techniques, collage, texture, and expressive mark-making. Through guided instruction and hands-on exploration, you’ll discover how to build a portrait that reflects more than just appearance — a layered expression of your story, identity, and creativity.

No advanced painting experience is required. This class is designed to support beginners as well as artists who want to expand their mixed media skills.

-What You’ll Learn

Throughout the workshop we will explore a variety of mixed media techniques, including:

• Creating a dynamic abstract background • Working with acrylic washes and expressive mark-making • Incorporating inks and layered color techniques • Using gloss gel, modeling paste, and glitter gel to build texture and depth • Learning basic portrait drawing techniques to map out facial structure • Integrating collage elements into your artwork to add meaning and visual interest

Participants will also explore how personal materials can become part of the artwork itself.

You are welcome to bring items such as:

• journal pages • handwritten notes or letters • printed photographs • decorative paper or napkins • tissue paper • meaningful imagery or text

These elements can be incorporated into your painting to create a portrait that carries personal symbolism and story.

What’s Included

All materials are provided for you.

Participants will receive:

• a 16 × 20 gallery-wrapped canvas • acrylic paints and mixed media materials • brushes and texture tools • inks, gloss gel, modeling paste, and glitter gel • collage materials

In addition to your finished artwork, you’ll also take home a small personal supply kit so you can continue experimenting with these techniques in your own creative practice.

What You’ll Leave With

By the end of the workshop you’ll leave with:

• a completed 16 × 20 mixed media self-portrait • new painting and collage techniques • a deeper understanding of layered mixed media processes • a small collection of art supplies to continue creating at home

Most importantly, you’ll leave with the experience of creating something uniquely personal — a portrait built through layers of color, texture, and story.
