Combining black and white photographs and collage can be magical. After I created Photography and Mixed Media Collage I wanted to make work that was larger. I don’t have a large format photo printer, so I needed to come up with a way to print large with what I had. I decided that splitting the image into equal sections and printing each out would be the answer.
In this class you will learn the technique so you can create work that takes up space. It focuses on creating the work and not taking the pictures. Take pictures that bring you joy or use ones you already have and combine them with creative collage to make a dynamic piece.
This is a stand-alone class. In other words, you do not have to take my other class Photography and Mixed Media Collage first. If you have taken it already this would expand on that class to create larger work.
Early registration price is $38.00 through April 20th. You will be able to view the class April 21st and the price goes to full price at $48.00.
All lessons are pre-recorded, you have lifetime access, and the lessons are downloadable
