Repurposed Materials into Art

Do you like to recycle materials and create a greener environment?  Do you have a giant stash of fabric that you would like to use up?  If so, then this workshop is for you!   This workshop uses scraps of fabric from other projects along with mixed media elements such as found objects, papers, lovely trash, interesting textures and repurposed clothing.  Students will be taught methods to make this kind of quilt image possible.  Compositional elements will be the focus and daily presentations will cover topics such as design inspiration, finding your voice as an artist and design elements.  Bring in a favorite surroundings photo for a starting point for design.   This fun, collaborative and liberating workshop will have you loving the environment in an entirely new way.  This method will allow your design voice to sing and give you design confidence!
