2025 Art Avenues

Explore Mark-making and Composition with Mini Collages

Join Christy to explore intuitive mark-making using stamping tools and unusual art brushes.  We will make an assortment of collage papers which will be used to create a series of mini collages.  This fun, fast-paced workshop will guide you through the basics of color, collage and composition using processes that can be further explored for your own personal art making or in the classroom.
