Saturday, April 18, 1-3:30pm
Ages 16 and up are welcome
Cost: $50 + $5 materials (all materials are included)
Beginners and returners welcome!
In this beginner-friendly class we will collage a bird by exploring vintage papers, oil pastels, pencil, and watercolor.
We'll start with some basic instructions on sketching birds. Then we'll introduce oil pastels to create layers of color and texture for the bird body. For the background, we'll create a floral design for our bird with watercolor and maybe even some chalk pastels. Finally, we'll collage the two together!
My name is Marydean, but everyone calls me Mary. I have been creating for my art business, Marydean Draws since 2013. I've taught art to children and adults in various classes over the last ten years along with online watercolor tutorials on my blog. I have been using watercolor and mixed media materials to create collection for prints in my shop and display at various local shows including the JMU Arboretum, The Lady Jane Shop, and The Church of the Incarnation. I usually paint florals, birds, and landscapes, with a focus on color and an interest in using watercolor, pastels, and papers in non-traditional ways.
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.
