COLLAGE CLASS

Little Stories and The Big Picture Collage on Canvas
with Instructor Eileen Riley

Collage by Eileen Riley.

4 Fridays: February 4, 11, 18 and 25
9 am - Noon

This is a collage class that centers on a main design or subject. The interesting part is that the focus is made up of smaller images or parts creating a larger picture. In making the collage in this way you can tell multiple stories or carry a theme throughout the piece.

You will also learn how to glue properly so that you don’t get wrinkles in the paper. You will learn how to fit the papers around corners and edges. It’s a patience game. You will learn how to set up a composition, do graph drawings and use that to make your collage.

You can find free images at: unsplash.com. All supplies are included but if you want to bring some of your own images, mailings, scraps of paper by all means, do so. Another suggestion the artist has is to go to a bookstore and look at their magazine section. You are sure to find some artsy magazines with creative pictures in them. Pick one up and bring it to class. There will be a little bit of homework also. A critique will be exercised on the last day of class.
