Altered Imagery: Digital vs. Traditional Altered Photos
$135
Karen Michel
Student Level: All levels
In this class we will explore different processes of altering both traditional and digital photographs and how they can be used in mixed media art work. Think of it as Photoshop without the computer! Rediscover your love of photography by using your own imagery in your art. We will complete approx. 2 mixed media collages which incorporate our altered photos.
Supplies provided by Instructor includes a variety of collage scraps and paints and handouts
Supply List:
(3) 11”x13” Canvas Boards
Between 6-10 35mm color or b&w photos (any size), consider bold compositions. Please note that these prints need to be processed on a photo developing machine. Beware of photo kiosks as some use photo paper that you cannot alter. I have had great results with ofoto.com and snapfish.com
Between 6-10 photos printed on photo quality inkjet paper, consider bold compositions
Acrylic gel medium (your choice of gloss or matte)
Waterbased markers (ex: Marvy markers & Crayola markers are waterbased)

Awl
Clorox bleach pen
A small, medium and large paint brush (sm for detail, med for backgrounds and lg for gel medium)
A selection of collage paper scraps
Optional but wonderful: peerless watercolor sheets
