(SU15) Basic Mixed Media Prep 101: Art Journaling - In this 2-day workshop ‘mini-camp’, you will explore mixed media and in the process, transform a blank journal into a fun art journal! Art techniques include: laminating, frottage, collage, under-journaling, resists, glazing, masks, stenciling, and tangling. Once you learn these techniques you’ll never look at a blank page the same. The instructor will bring her personal collection of art journals for ideas and inspiration. See supplies list for items to bring to class – also, some FREE supplies will be provided.

Ages 15+.

Instructor: Mary Lou Haynes
