DESCRIPTION
Immerse yourself in color alongside your fellow collage artists in this lively class with expert teacher Anne Schneider. This is an opportunity to use the collage papers you have made and collected, and you'll amaze yourself as you apply them to create new, original art! You'll create sets and series of abstract art pieces, in varying sizes using just collage, no paint needed.

Anne will offer guidance with color selection, composition, shapes and collage art techniques, to connect all of your pieces to one another. We will finish the day by reviewing your sets and series and then selecting marks and doodles to provide the finishing touches.
