Secrets of Ink & Mixed Media Intensive Workshop

Get ready to roll up your sleeves and dive into this hands-on ink & mixed media workshop! We’ll explore the synergies of working with wet and dry mediums, generating innovative pieces that combine the abstract and the realistic. Experiment with composition, layering, texture, and mark-making using intuitive pouring methods alongside traditional image-making tools and approaches. Afterwards, add dimension by introducing collage and assemblage techniques, such as gluing and stenciling. This multi-layered process will help you produce dynamic imagery by integrating dimensional elements with compelling surfaces. By pushing your creative boundaries, awe-inspiring and unexpected results will emerge, enriching your aesthetic repertoire.
