Intro to Collage with Chris Watts
Overview
Saturday, 9/26, 10-4pm
Ages 16 and up are welcome
Cost: $160 + $15 materials (all materials are included)
Beginners and returners welcome!
Join this workshop to explore collage and see if layering paper is your new creative outlet. With Chris's guidance, you will learn about collage assembly, design, and the mystery of collage papers. Chris will bring an assortment of collage papers- found, purchased, drawn, painted, and printed. You will watch short video tutorials and have one-on-one discussions with Chris as you work through this fun workshop. You will leave class with a wealth of knowledge, a couple of small collages of your own work, and hopefully a new passion.
About the Instructor
Chris is an abstract painter and collage artist living on a small homestead in Churchville, VA. A native of southern California, where she earned her academic credentials, she studied studio art and graphic design and worked in the corporate marketing world for 20 years as a graphic designer. She moved to Virginia, and worked another 8 years as a graphic artist in downtown Staunton. Today, her passion centers on making art, and teaching art. A committed process painter, Chris loves abstract visual stories: the shortest of stories; poetic one-liners that oft times defy curation. “I want to paint the poem.”
Class Cancellations and Absence
Refunds minus a 10% or $20 processing fee (whichever is lower) are offered until 14 days before the start of class. After that, we do not offer refunds. We don’t offer refunds for missed classes, so please be sure you can attend all sessions of a class, or that you are okay with missing any that you’ll be away for. You can find out more on our studio policies page.
