Make Your Mark: Introduction to Mixed Media Art

All Skill Levels, Young Adults & Adults

Instructor: Julia Malakoff

Take yourself on a creative adventure! What does it mean to make mixed media art? Mixed media art combines two or more medias such as painting and drawing together in one piece. What happens if you add ink, or paper collage? And then more layers of paint and papers. This is the beginning of a mixed media art piece. Learn how to create art that explores many ways to make your creative mark. We will create our own, individual paint palettes. We will make personalized papers using mark making tools. And we will draw, doodle, scribble and sketch to create expressive lines that will become our visual communication. Join me for a creative journey into the world of mixed media art
