COLLAGE

$135 + $35 for all supplies

Today collage paintings combine paint, collage with dimensional objects and assemblage with metal, wood, or clay as well as paper cutting to tell a story. A collage may sometimes include magazine and newspaper clippings, ribbons, paint, bits of colored or handmade papers, portions of other artwork or texts, photographs and other found objects, glued to a substrate. Enjoy this comprehensive collage class.
