Mixed Media Art Play-Collage Art
The Arts | Available (Membership Required)
Mixed media is a fun and spontaneous approach to creating your very own playful art expression. Forget any negative self-thinking like “I can’t draw a straight line” or "I’m not artistic.” Just come to play. Think of this short time as releasing your “inner child.” In this workshop you’ll be creating a fun composition with various papers and organic materials. If you have special paper, string, ribbon, thread, yarn, lace, ticket stubs, or a special treasure you’d like to incorporate into your piece, bring it with you. Just be prepared to come, express yourself and let your mind and creativity blossom!
- Since she was a child, Karen has been fascinated with art -- images, textures, line and color – which led to her obtaining a BA in Art and Art History. Over the past 25 years she has taught both children and adults in California, Alaska and here in Arizona, all the while demonstrating basic art principles, theory, techniques and mediums. Even though she primarily creates both abstract and realistic compositions in oil and acrylic, she typically returns to what she calls “art play” as a therapeutic and calming source of inspiration and comfort for her own creative expression.
