In our buzzing world, collage provides a means to calm and focus. Each class starts with a short challenge, a small question to answer while you let go of the day’s worries. Then dive into your project, with support and guidance. Along the way, we’ll discuss the essentials that make work strong: line, shape, value, color, story. Take this class if you are a beginner or artist looking to explore. There are no mistakes, only learning. Go where your ideas take you, in an atmosphere of support and creativity.
