  Learn:

• Different ways to emboss and impress 
• To enhance embossed images with acrylic 

Create:

• An embossing sampler
• An 8x10 embossing enhanced with acrylic paint

Creating art and design on metal using  embossed and impressed details is an exciting way to incorporate three dimensional art on a flat sheet of metal. Students will transfer their own drawing or design onto a metal sheet. Embossing and impressing methods will be demonstrated and used to transform the art with detail and 3D qualities. Completed pieces may remain brilliant, be painted and/or antiqued. There’s nothing quite like transforming a flat sheet of metal into a decorative sculptural art piece!

This workshop is designed for adults and mature teens, age 16 and up. No prior art  experience required.

$49, all supplies included.

Maximum enrollment of 8 to ensure individualized attention.  Please see general workshop information and policies. To register, click "buy now" or call or visit the gallery. Please note, payment is required for registration to be considered complete.

 Learn: 

•  To carve image into 4x6 soft linoleum block 
• How to ink and pull images 

Create:

•  unique prints for use as art or notecards

There’s nothing quite like carving away soft linoleum to reveal a unique work of art.  Printmaking is an old art form used to create several images of the same unique design.  Block printing is the type of printmaking we will explore in this class.  Your artwork will be drawn on  4”x6” soft blocks, carved and inked. Several prints will be pulled for each student to use as art or notecards.  The printmaking process requires attention to detail but is quite enjoyable and worth the effort!

 A few simple drawings of organic shapes and a patterned background will provide infinite creative possibilities for artwork on fabric.  If you’ve ever filled in an image in a coloring book you are ready to work on fabric.  You will create your own design and use fabric markers and/or acrylic paint mixed with fabric medium to complete your organic design.  We will discuss color choices, harmony and contrast.  You will leave with your original colorful organic design on fabric. I consider this class an official stress reliever, join us and have fun!

Students will be given a successful formula to prepare acrylic paint for use in acrylic pours.  Examples will be shown and the uncontrolled aspects of the pours will be discussed. Simple  pour techniques will be demonstrated at the beginning of the workshop. Then students will explore and create three of their own acrylic pours (one 8” x 8”, one 4”x 6”and one 4”x 4”) to take home and marvel over!  It is quite addictive and fun, some even find it relaxing.
