Event Details
Visiting artist, Julie Daniels, presents The Square Inch Project: A Watercolor Collage Workshop! This workshop is appropriate for any skill level or ability. All supplies will be provided; just bring your imagination! You must be registered to attend, as space and supplies are limited! Registration opens on August 20th, at 10am.
In this workshop we will be using only square inches of painted watercolor paper and glue. Julie recently created a series of collages that she entitled The Square Inch Project after working with a local jeweler who was using bits of her failed watercolor paintings in her jewelry. Unsure how to be compensated for her paintings, she settled on charging by the square inch. Suddenly, this sad pile of paintings had new life. So, she started mining her own work for sections of color or texture that spoke to her, and then she would play. Not unlike solving a puzzle, you need to move things around until they fit. The process is surprising and delightful every single time.
