About this Event

In this hands-on mixed media workshop geared toward older adults, participants will learn the fundamentals of painting through the creation of still life compositions. Participants will examine how artists incorporate fibers into their work to create richly detailed, textured compositions. Building on these techniques, participants will explore functional collage and learn how to enhance their own paintings using fiber-based materials such as fabric and paper.

No prior experience required. All materials are provided. Refreshments are included and free parking is available in the Glassell garage.

This workshop is part of the Vitality Arts series, presented by the Glassell School of Art at the Museum of Fine Arts, Houston, in partnership with the Community Artists' Collective and its Jubilee Quilt Circle. This program receives generous support from E.A. Michelson Philanthropy.

Location: Glassell School of Art, Second Floor
