Do you like messing around in your studio?  I mean with art supplies.  Let me show you how you can do the “Messaround”.  It's kind of like doodling, but with collage materials instead of a pen or pencil.  I will supply many mixed media materials, and you will make some in the class.  Learn the secret to perfect composition in your messaround. You are welcome to search your stash of mixed media materials and bring some of your own doodads and stuff.  You will make one fabulous 4" x 14" abstract in this class and have fun doin’ it!  

​Materials provided by instructor:
     • Golden gloss medium, gel
          medium and fluid acrylics
