Let's have fun with Mixed Media!

This class is designed for artists of all levels and mediums to dive into various techniques, mediums and approaches to creating mixed media art. In this relaxed, creative environment, we will practice using a variety of items in our art in combination with acrylics, watercolors, crayon, pencil and other mediums. 

Each week we will focus on one technique such as photo transfer, producing ephemeral, composition, backgrounds, mixing types of media, and more. Start of class may begin with a discussion about the technique we will be focusing on that week and may always  touch on color theory, composition, and/or mediums. 

Items list will be sent out to attendees before each class.
