Information Learn collage and mixed media techniques such as stamping and experiment with different mediums, such as acrylic paint, glue, tinfoil, bubble wrap, to name a few. We will also explore alternative photo transfer techniques.  
 
Instructor Rebecca Risk will take you through the steps to create your own mixed media collage masterpieces. We will also talk about layering, composition and the elements and principals of art.
