Roxanne Evans Stout: Collage Journeys Santa Fe
April 8 - 12, 2024, Santa Fe
This 5-day workshop includes optional open studios. Bring or ship work from home, or just show work you made in the workshop. Artists earn 100% and pay no gallery commissions.
Collaging your Journey is a fresh new workshop that I have designed just for Jen Tough Gallery and Santa Fe. I love New Mexico and find it to be an amazing place of constant inspiration and creativity. If you love to collage, paint, assemble, stitch, experiment and following your muse, this class is for you!
In this workshop I will guide you in different collage and painting projects, all with unique twists. We will use fabric, paper, and hand stitching to create unique landscapes and abstract collages. To house our creations, we will nest and loosely arrange them inside of old book covers that you source ahead of time. Some pages will be tied and wrapped, others will be stitched into beautiful bundles of textures, patterns, and symbols.
Our work will be expressive and multi-dimensional, with added attachments of natural and found objects, mark making, symbols and Asemic writing. In our work we will capture the quiet beauty and luminous light of the desert, the shapes, and the colors of Santa Fe.
Join me and immerse yourself in the creative process!
