Course Description

Faded shapes and lines will be our guide as we imagine what comes next. Join me as we alter magazine pages, create copies, tear and burn images, bring in our own marks, stitch and create brand new images from what was. Our imaginations can go wild with realistic or unrealistic images. This process will not only bring you so much joy but it just may bring your art into a whole new world.
