Ever since I was a little girl my imagination flourished parallel to my reality.  One of my most vivid memories as a kid was playing “Superheroes” with the other neighborhood children. 

I claimed Bat Girl because I absolutely loved her and on that day I was Bat Girl and it felt wonderful and powerful in the midst of a not so great real world waiting for me. Fantastical imagination is powerful. It carries our spirit to the endless “what if’s?” and can open doors to a larger mind and life. My art has become my neighborhood playground. In this class, I hope to inspire you to remember and cultivate your past and present imaginations and daydreams and then express them through collage.

In this mixed media class, we will create and capture fanciful moments as we delve into the possibilities of the art of collage. We will use simple editing techniques with beautiful photography.  Together, we will create dreamy backgrounds with acrylic inks and watercolors. We will also become novice fashion designers with the creative papers we choose to adorn our muses with. We will become hairstylists with a wooden skewer in hand. We will add eclectic finishing touches with doodles, line work, marks and indulgent touches of gold.
