Using digital images and dimension with collage adds depth and interest to all types of artwork. Before coming to the workshop each participant will email me images so they can be printed on several alternative surfaces and be ready to use in your designs. During the class you will use these images as you combine other elements for dimensional colllage.
We will create artwork that is uniquely yours. Starting with your digital images we will construct a collection of small compositions. These compositions can be put into book form, or stand alone as collage pieces. There will be instructions to accomplish the format that works for you.
Constructing the base and working from there, our digital images and other elements will be assembled and embellished. Participants will also receive verbal and written instructions on how to prepare fabrics in the future to print on their inkjet printers.
Kit fee of $20 payable to Instructor at class time will include: students printed images on lutradur, tyvek, cotton and watercolor paper. Surfaces for the base pages 12” x 7”
Supplies provided by Instructor: All sorts of scraps of fabric and papers and elements to be used in collage, use of Hairdryers, Dyes for base pages to be used with students paints, use of Heat gun
Supply List:
- Liquid acrylics, using colors that will accent or compliment your images, 4 colors will be enough
- Basic sewing and creating supplies for example, scissors, needles and thread, 2633 gauge wire
- found objects, buttons, trims, scraps of fabric, anything small that will coordinate with your images
- gel medium 8oz for glue and a small brush
- a couple of colors of embroidery thread to match you colors
Optional suggestions: if you knit or crochet you may want to bring needles and thread with a small amount of yarn. I love to add these elements to my collage. If you embroider or do other needle arts, you may want to bring work you don’t mind cutting up or some small pieces. These types of items are wonderful on the pages.
