We will be painting 3 different types of papers for collage, scrapbooking, or art journaling. The popular term for these papers is Collage Fodder. We will paint papers with bubbles, make tissue paper in a variety of colors and make shibori paper (folded and dyed with inks or paints). The techniques are fun and unusual. Leigh uses these papers in her acrylic collage paintings and other projects. You can see some of her work on Instagram. Please join us for a fun, lighthearted, technique packed workshop. All supplies are provided.
There will be a follow-up workshop using the papers to make collage grids in February when Leigh has a solo show at the West Edge Gallery.
