| $150.00

Dates: 9/16
Details: Saturday, 1 Session
Times: 10:00 AM – 2:00 PM

This class is for artists and art students who have some familiarity with the art-making process. Whether you are a representational or abstract painter or drawer, this class will open you up to the playfulness of acrylic mixed-media collage! This is a full-day workshop, so I will be guiding you through a series of exercises, and techniques that will broaden your familiarity with acrylic paints, acrylic mediums, and collage. By incorporating hand-made and textured papers, as well as bringing in papers “of meaning”, from various parts of your life, we will be learning how to build and compose gorgeous mixed-media art pieces!
There are two facets of the class: first, I will lead you through a series of exercises for building and forming the pieces. Second, this “Lab” class will allow time to work on your own, to deepen your process, and dialogue with fellow art-makers as we go. Techniques will include glazing, tints, washes and the basics of building layers with papers, as well as collage techniques. The final phase of the class will focus on composition, and how to understand when a piece is finished. Come enjoy with your fellow art-makers, as we learn about the endless flexibility and joy of mixed-media collage. See website for materials list.

Summer Camp Withdrawal: All withdrawals for our Summer Camp must be made by June 9 to receive a refund, less a $25 administrative fee per week. For any tuition payments paid by credit card, your full convenience fees will be deducted from your refund.

Student Absences: No refunds will be made for student absences including absences due to COVID or other sickness. We understand that students may have to miss class for a variety of reasons, but New Art decides whether or not to run a class before the term starts based on enrollment and sufficient tuition to cover our costs. Refunding students for individual absences makes it difficult to calculate a breakeven point for each class.

Faculty Absences: All efforts will be made to find a substitute for faculty absences. In the event that a class must be cancelled, students will be notified by email, which will be sent to the address provided during registration. One makeup class will be scheduled each term for a single absence by a faculty member. For multiple absences, a substitute faculty member will be assigned. There will be no refunds for faculty absences.

Scholarships: Limited scholarships are available according to need. Please apply here.
