Student Level: All
Type of Workshop: Process

 
 

Do you have a piece of art or a section of art that you really like that you did on crappy paper and want to save it? Or a canvas that isn’t working but you hate to throw it away? In this class we'll discuss the endless possibilities of leveraging your art. If you have a piece that isn’t working or something that is working but is too small or on poor quality paper, bring it in.

Bargain Bin - Works created on poor substrate

Magnifying glass needed! Pieces that ended up being too small

Interest missing - only a portion of the piece draws the eye in

Wowza - so busy that you just don't know what to look at

Blah, Boring – needs some drama

We’ll discuss Methods for Leveraging your artwork and I'll demonstrate some tried and true salvage methods including:

Scan or Xerox
Cut and Paste
Clear Gesso
Skins
Selective Repainting
Try a new technique on it
Transfers
Pigmented Prints
Trade

Let's get busy solving and salvaging!

Supply List: Just your open mind and enthusiasm for learning!
