Spend a full, expressive day exploring the vibrant meeting point between collage and abstract painting. This workshop invites you to build a dynamic mixed‑media piece using ephemeral papers, found objects, and intuitive mark‑making to create a work that feels alive, layered, and deeply personal. You'll begin by gathering and selecting tactile materials - fragments of packaging, textured papers, natural elements, and unexpected objects that carry their own quiet histories. Through guided demonstrations, you’ll learn how to integrate these materials with acrylic paint, exploring composition, adhesion methods, colour relationships, and the dance between chaos and intention. As the day unfolds, you’ll experiment with ripping, arranging, embedding, glazing, and overpainting with glazes, allowing the piece to evolve through chance, contrast, and curiosity.
