SKETCHBOOKS AND JOURNALS Experiment with a range of readily available mixed media materials and explore collage techniques. Using a variety of papers, build up interesting surfaces that reflect the textures and colours of the Halls Gap environment. Make several small book forms; including concertina books (a perfect format for landscapes} and simple bindings for single sheets and signatures that will help you collate sketches, ideas, and inspirations into a portable record of your experience.

4 Day | Monday 12 – Thursday 15 September 2022
OBSERVATION, INTERPRETATION, PROCESS: MIXED MEDIA Use mixed media collage materials and techniques to capture the essential elements of Grampians. Explore and experiment with media of your choice and some things you may not have considered using in your practice. Loosen up your approach when making new work with some experimental drawing and mark making, work on a sequential series of pieces, add and subtract layers to make complex, textured and patterned surfaces that capture key elements of your surroundings. Keep a record of your experiments and explorations bound in simple book forms. All Levels |
