Intuitive Collage Workshop – Saturday September 6th 11:00am – 3:00pm
Collage art allows you to explore yourself without any special training or ability to draw or paint. Just a good pair of scissors, glue and a desire to create!
There are no limits to what you can do in the world of collage, but how on earth do you even start? Staring at a blank surface can be stifling…
In this NO-PRESSURE creative environment, we invite you: Intuitive collage making is a creative process that encourages you to tap into your subconscious mind by assembling images and materials without any predetermined plan. And even if you have a “plan,” intuitive collage making allows your creative energy to run unimpeded to make a truly one-of-a-kind artistic expression.
This 4-hour workshop will introduce you to one of the most effective ways to start collaging – using your intuition, allowing your senses to guide you and inform your brain. Whether working in 2 or 3 dimensions, intuitive collaging is the foundation of creating highly personal, imaginative, inspiring art. And you don’t have to know how to draw or paint to make it!.
