Experience the joys and secrets of combining mixed media fabric and paper collage with drawing and painting. Students are encouraged to incorporate some of their own prior art work into new pieces. The materials used will be the choice of each student. Participants are encouraged to use materials that they have. The workshop will address working with collage with papers, fabrics, found objects, past art work, pencil and charcoal drawing, and acrylic painting. The objective of the workshop is to explore new mixed media techniques, entertain the idea of re-purposing prior work and excavate each student’s authentic voice in their art. Participants are responsible for supplies – a list will be provided.
Teacher’s Note: I encourage everyone to incorporate mixed media collage into what they already do! I will work with each of you on whatever style project you would like to work on whether it is faces, figures, landscapes, still lives or abstracts. We collage on the first day and then draw and paint on the second day. There are no set rules in my workshops. I try to create a fun time that introduces new techniques and a comfortable learning environment to enhance where you already are. All levels are welcomed!

Fantastic workshop at the Art League of Daytona
There is nothing more satisfying for an art teacher than seeing the whole energy of the room become electrified with ideas and possibilities. This happened over the past two days at the Art League of Daytona. The energy was so great that I had the experience of finishing a piece I love too. (I'm calling it Fields Near Jersey.) What a fantastic group of ladies you all are! I'd love to see more of your mixed media work as you finish it so send more photos. Here's a sampling of the fun that was had.
Abundance Lesson
Few things are more satisfying for an artist than a well executed redo. I had this abstract piece called Abundance for sometime and ironically, it was lacking. So I added a blue jay and some sky and it all came together. Focal point. It now has one. Focus. I believe I now have more. Synergy. The whole is now greater than the simple sum of its parts. Hasn't that always been the lesson of abundance?

Peaceful World
I have numerous art journals but have never made any that I would consider selling...until now. This is a handmade art journal consisting of 12 pages of collage with prints of my artwork printed on fabrics. Enjoy the message....
Little Slugger
in Figures
Finished! Little Slugger got worked on at my demo for the Leesburg Art Association at the Leesburg Center for the Arts. This was a great example of the balance between what to cover up and what to leave revealed. I just loved the pattern of the outfit but it was seriously clashing with the original background patterns. Think this works...

Check out the show there of Richard Colvin's work called Local Colors. Wonderful!
