VIRTUAL Art with Kim: Abstract Mixed Media Exploration

Leader: Kim Wenger Hall, RYT-500

Discover the power of non-representational abstract art through the endless opportunities of mixed media. Let your emotions and ideas shine through as you experiment with various materials and techniques to create unique, expressive artwork. Learn to let go and play as you experiment, take risks and let go of the outcome!

Supplies: the sky is the limit – here are some ideas:
• Paper: Choose a variety of textures and sizes, such as watercolor paper, mixed media paper, or canvas.
• Acrylic paints: A basic set of colors, including white, black, and a few primary colors.
• Acrylic markers: For adding details, outlines, or accents.
• Collage materials: Paper scraps, fabric, photographs, magazines, etc.
• Scissors: For cutting paper and other materials.
• Glue: For adhering collage elements and creating layers.
• Brushes: A variety of sizes and shapes for different applications.
