An Artful Journey Workshop- Mixed Medley

Mixed Medley
A 3 day workshop with DJ Pettitt

Workshop will be held in Los Gatos, CA as part of
An Artful Journey

February 18-22, 2010

Immerse yourself in a 3-day class filled with innovative techniques and inspiration!
Learn a number of my favorite techniques during this artistic odyssey.
You'll be exploring new ways to prepare backgrounds, including using different mediums to create texture and interest;
making journal and collage pages with fabric and tissue paper and varied painting methods;
altering photos in unique ways; learning simple book construction, and how to create a pleasing composition
that will add continuity and flow to your work. You’ll have the opportunity to complete a finished project of your choosing,
or simply explore the techniques and spend time on the ones that stir your creative spirit!
