Collage Workshop with Susan Gomez

Workshop Description

Move beyond "cut and paste" with the guidance of paper prodigy Susan Gomez. This collage class digs deep into The WasteShed's kaleidoscopic drifts of textures, patterns and images to unearth new visions.

All materials are included with the price of admission.
