Celebrating Me: Online art workshop – Collage

Hours

7.00 pm - 8.30 pm

Location

Online via Zoom

In this week's workshop, artist Nicholas Tsekouras will take participants through basic steps on how to make a simple, yet effective collage. Participants will first be introduced to the world of collage through a short but in-depth history of the medium featuring an array of examples. The workshop will explore the various techniques of collage as well as layering, typography/calligraphy, drawing and painting as additional techniques in order to elevate and encapsulate your theme further.

For this workshop you will need: 

  • 2-3 pieces of paper (any size larger than A5, no bigger than A3) or any surface you wish to use to collage on 
  • 1-2 glue sticks or other glue adhesive 
  • A pair of scissors or cutting knife  
  • Pens, pencils, paint and other mediums (optional) 
  • A minimum of 10 pages of paper materials with interesting colours, patterns, images, graphics, typography/calligraphy. This can include scans of personal artworks, printed imagery and materials, postcards, business cards, receipts, newspaper, coloured paper, book inserts, natural elements (petals, leaves etc). Essentially anything that appeals to you and you wish to use to create your own collages!
