Flora & Feather: Mixed Media Collage & Pastel
Advertisement
In this full-day workshop, participants will begin by creating a pastel painting inspired by a still life arrangement featuring florals, birds, and fruit. With a focus on color, texture, and composition, you'll learn how to capture the charm of natural forms using soft pastels.
In the second part of the workshop, we’ll experiment with adding layers of collage—incorporating patterned papers, magazine clippings, vintage maps, and other found materials. Through guided demonstrations and playful exploration, you’ll learn how to integrate collage elements into your pastel work to add depth, contrast, and storytelling.
Participants are also encouraged to bring in older pieces of their own artwork to reimagine and transform through collage, giving new life to existing creations.
This workshop is perfect for artists of all levels looking to loosen up, try new materials, and embrace a more experimental approach to making art. photo credit: Andrea Steffen
