Class Description
Description
What you'll learn in this collage class:
This workshop takes a lively approach to exploring the interrelationship between collage and painting.
Students will employ the historically unstructured medium of collage as a means of sketching and as a springboard for ideas in painting. Work will begin simply becoming progressively more complex as students are urged to push the limits of the mediums and their ideas. As the work done in one medium assists and influences one's vision in the other the collaboration between process and concept will encourage the production of less planned and more unexpected images.
Required Materials for all class sessions:
Glue
In order to experiment, bring smaller quantities of several different glues. All of the following thin with water
6 - 12+ sheets of a versatile paper (140 lb. or heavier). Recommended size: 18 x 24" or 22 x 30". You might consider a selection of small and large sheets. Choose your paper according to which water based painting medium you plan to bring.
Bring an assortment of red, yellow, blue, black & white transparent papers (tissue or **translucent Glasine) and/or transparent fabrics.
Also bring a variety of other materials including interesting and unusual papers (besides the transparent materials you may also consider bringing some highly textured and patterned papers and fabrics,) cutouts from magazines, color xeroxes from photographs, newspaper material, found objects and other memorabilia.
Other possibilities: threads, strings, cords, embroidery threads, yarn, rope, trim, ribbons, (of varying thicknesses), sewing supplies, glitter, or wire.
Paint
Bring only water based: Acrylic, Watercolor, and/or Gouache. Your palette should include (but need not be limited to):
Bring a variety of large and small rounds and flats. (The YES PASTE requires a stiff bristle brush.) Some additional tools might include sponges, paint rollers, squeeze bottles, rubber stamps, etc.
