A Bit of Collage
The group gathered once again in April, this time to explore the use of 'collage' techniques. This involved using pieces cut out from magazines, which were then applied to form an image or used perhaps to develop old painted and drawn art works. Some collage work attempted to render an existing or premeditated image, while other compositions were creatively improvised. Out of this came some striking and highly varied figurative pieces.
'Mixed Media' workshops are planned as a 'First Tuesday of the Month' activity.
"Thanks" to Meredith for helping some of us to add another string to our bow, a most interesting and fun experience.
