About this Event

May 30 + May 31 | 10 am to 1pm each day

Thoughtful composition, subtle details, and expressive use of line and color can build the atmosphere and meaning of your work. This two-day workshop blends technique and intuition to help you create evocative, poetically inspired mixed-media pieces.

Through guided exercises and the study of contemporary artists, you will explore core concepts such as perspective, the rule of thirds, and tonal composition. Over two sessions, you will practice thumbnail sketching, prepare photo transfers, and develop a final drawing. By the end, you’ll complete a dynamic mixed-media piece and gain a deeper understanding of your own creative process.

A list of supplies and materials needed will be shared two weeks prior to the workshop

A minimum of 8 students is required to run the workshop; refunds if the workshop is cancelled.

There will be a lunch break from Noon to 12:30 pm. Please bring your own lunch!

Ages 18+ ONLY.
