Mixed Media on Canvas | Tricia Reust
Over the course of the weekend, we will explore completing one smaller work with a minimal approach, and the other larger work incorporating all the techniques to be covered, including glazing, printing, stencilling and stamping.
What will I learn?
We will be working on two gessoed canvases, one smaller, about 10"x12" or 11"x14" (25x30cm or 28x36cm) and one at least 24"x30" (61x76cm).
The process will be to briefly cover basic design principles, collage and texture the canvas surfaces on the first day and complete the works with paint and/or dry drawing media.
Drawings can be incorporated with the collage and/or drawn directly on to the canvas.
Who is this workshop suitable for?
This is a beginners' workshop, suitable for all levels. Artists with some mixed media experience and who wish to move to a higher level will also benefit.
What do I need to bring?
- Bring your lunch and snacks or you can purchase from cafes close by.
What is provided
- Tea and coffee (please bring your own cup)
- A friendly, supportive and encouraging learning environment
- Connection to the Bienarte art community
