Instructor: Suzanne Findeisen
This workshop invites participants to explore the creative process of painting papers and transforming them into vibrant, layered collages. Using acrylic paint, found papers, and mark making tools, students will first create a unique collection of textured and patterned papers.
Once the papers are dried, sorted, and trimmed, we'll move into the collage phase, learning how to plan a background, develop composition using symmetry or movement, and glue down layers with care.
Students will have the option to collage onto a variety of surfaces, including canvas, wooden panels, book covers, or found objects like jars and boxes. I will provide wood panels plus cigar boxes for this project. Participants can bring in other objects if desired. We'll discuss glue techniques, layering with intention, and finishing touches that bring a piece together.
This class is designed for all skill levels and encourages playful experimentation, personal expression, and a deeper appreciation for materials. All supplies are provided, but participants are welcome to bring their own images or collage elements to personalize their work.
