GELLI PRINTING WORKSHOP - Thursdays Feb 6th and 13th

 


FILLED
In Person Workshop
San Antonio Tlayacapan

Thursdays February 6th and 13th, 1-4 pm

Boy are you going to love this workshop. Gelli Printing is all the rage and a two day workshop for it is coming to Lake Chapala.

Gelli Printing is a great way to make one of a kind art prints and collage papers. You will immediately find yourself addicted to this art technique. It is so much fun.

As always the workshop will include a fabulous goody bag which will include a gelli plate, a brayer, acrylic paints and lots more.

Class size is now limited to only 6 students. My workshops usually get full fast so sign up soon.

Collage for Mixed Media - Thursdays January 9th and 16th

FILLED

San Antonio Tlayacapan

Thursdays January 9th and 16th, 2025

I began making collages my freshman year in college... a very very long time ago. After working as a professional photographer for 30 years and then at Apple as a Creative Trainer, I moved to Mexico. I have been in Mexico for nearly 8 years and in that time took painting classes. Eventually I found my voice with Mixed Media. A large part of my pieces are a combination of painting and collage.

Would you like to learn how I use Collage in Mixed Media and how I make my own Collage papers?

I am giving another in person two day workshop on Thursdays January 9th and 16th, 1:00pm - 4:00pm. All materials are provided, including canvases, paint, collage papers, glue, scissors. Wait until you see the students' goody bag!

CLASS SIZE IS LIMITED TO 6 STUDENTS. Ask a friend. It's going to be fun.
