Mixed Media and Collage Interest Group
Date: Friday, February 26, 2021
Time: 1:00 - 2:30pm
Our latest Shared Interest Group is “Mixed Media and Collage” and we will meet every two months on Friday afternoons (1-2:30pm), alternating with the “Fiber Fridays” group. This group will begin each session with a small group project, using the materials you have at home. Then we will share other works and discuss the mixed media processes we all use.
If you would like to join this Interest Group please email info@belmararts.org and we will send you a ZOOM meeting link when we get close to the date.
The group project for our first meeting: stitched photographs. We will start with a quick review of what other artists have done with sewing or embroidering everyday photographs (see below). Then, in our shared ZOOM workspace, we will each take a photograph and apply various forms of stitching to it to change the meaning or impression of the image.
You can find these and other examples online, especially on Pinterest. Search for "stitched photographs" or "embroidered photographs" or the artists named below.
