This class explores the ways in which the combination of drawing, painting, methods for transferring images, and developing layered imagery can ignite artistic practice and evoke personal perceptions, resulting in complex narratives. In this mixed media workshop, students are encouraged to experiment with many surfaces, processes, and ways to display or present their work. Demonstrations include graphite transfers, trace monotypes, techniques for joining materials, and painting/drawing onto non-traditional surfaces. Students engage in daily demonstrations, one-on-one and group feedback, and the introduction of work by contemporary artists working in mixed media.
