Collage is a wonderful technique where artwork is made from an assemblage of different forms such as tissue papers, stamps, fabric, foils, photos etc – creating a new picture. The origins of collage can be traced back hundreds of years, but this technique made a dramatic reappearance in the early 20th century as an art form of novelty.
During this workshop, lots of interesting materials will be available for you to rummage through and use, but please do bring along other things that have caught your attention – perhaps a beautifully printed paper bag or old music papers.
Bookable after 4th January.

There is something very relaxing and peaceful about sitting quietly in the garden. It’s thought that gardens are where man and nature meet. During this workshop we will begin by creating a series of studies that help you to focus on the line and shape of nature and form.
