Resin Plank Mixed Media

Resin Plank Mixed Media

We wrap up ARTOWN with our most popular Mixed Media workshop taught by in-house artist Donna Smit. She will guide students through a mindful creative process reusing planks of wood to create a one of a kind, dimensional piece of hanging art. This workshop, you have the option of creating your multimedia project in a square frame or upcycled wooden fence plank. Planks will be painted with acrylic paint, in a variety of color options, prior to class to allow drying time. Students will have access to a wide variety of materials and explore textures and layering. Students will learn to break bottles, vases, and cups to create a unique design. Crash glass, stained glass, and even plastic can be used to create beautiful artwork. Vintage jewelry can be used as well and students are encouraged to bring baubles from home. Resin will be the final process and will cover the entire piece. Each plank will have alligator brackets installed for ready to hang. Plank is approx 5x18, Frame is 12x12. Pieces will need to be left at the studio to cure and will be available for a few days later. Ages 15+. Preregistration required. Limited to eight students.
