Smoke and Mirrors
. . . The art of using texture to produce gallery quality works of art
Beautifully layered images and colors over a textured surface give this piece it's softness and depth.
Mixed media on paper.
Please join me in sharing my 30 years experience in creating art with texture. Learn how to create wonderful gallery quality works of art with little or no experience. For the more experienced artist you will learn to incorporate new and exciting ways to make your own art transform to a greater level of depth and interest. With the use of all sorts of items and compounds most found in nature to create texture and how to apply it and paint over it. We will have fun with the use of hand made stencils and hand carved blocks to create layers upon layers in the work. You will be so fired up with all the new and exciting avenues to take you next art project to. Loose your inhibitions and artists block and immerse yourself in the 3-D effect of rich and bold textures. Over the course you will finish two complete pieces of art using various techniques of texture application and stamp and block carving.
