Worlds in Paper with Monika Zarzeczna

Fridays, July 5 - August 30 9:30 - 11:30AM

July 5, 12, 26 and August 2, 9, 16, 23, 30

(note: No class on July 19th)

During these 8 two-hour sessions students will create artwork using paper and cardboard, and learn about how artists use these materials in contemporary art.

During the first half of the course the focus will be on 2D work in recycled and paper-related materials. The students will experiment with collage, color mixing and sketching to then create a map of their world in paint, cardboard and collage.

The second half of the course will have students explore cardboard as a 3D material. Students will make relief sculptures and small, free standing, balancing sculptures. The sculptures will vary from abstract to pattern/ornamental, to representative.

To add color students will decoupage and explore mixing and applying paint.
