Join us for a fun workshop with GOLDEN Artist Educator, Lisa Bebi where we will create a unique painting of our moms for Mother's Day! Painting using imagery in our art making is such a fun way to tell a visual story. We use photocopies as the underlying image and build from there. This is a way of creating expressive and fun art that can stand up to any other form of art. In this workshop, learn how to paint over a photocopy and how to properly adhere paper seamlessly to a substrate—without bubbles or creases. Students will walk away with a small painting and an understanding of this fun process—not to mention, these make great Mother's Day gifts! Please visit here for additional information about the event. Stay Connected on Social Media! Facebook & Instagram
