This week is a materials-based course built around experimenting with diverse methods of image making through painting,drawing and collage. The common factor behind most great art is the willingness of the artist to take risks and try out unexpected media. We will be going out and exploring different techniques and discovering new ways to approach our subject matter. The afternoon sessions will concentrate on each individuals preferred media.
