Creative Cabinets of Curiosity - Mixed-Media & Mosaic Assemblage
Description
Join Lisa-marie from Creative Avenue York, in this curious workshop where you will create a totally unique Assemblage Artwork. There will be wooden frames, etc, available to adapt, as well as vintage wooden boxes and preloved items. With simple skills and a little guidance, you will reconfigure the wooden parts into a type-tray style 'Cabinet', which can then be painted to suit your theme. As a Mosaic Artist, Lisa-Marie will provide a wide variety of beautifully coloured and textured tiles, as well as a hoard of found objects, shells, china, oddments and nik-naks to utilise. You are also encouraged to bring your own decorative 'Bits' and sentimental 'Bobs' to include. Spend the day curating a deliciously unique 'Cabinet of Curiosities', embrace the weird and wonderful and tell a story in mixed-media. Lisa-Marie's home studio is stuffed full of inspiration and has a vast array of materials on hand. There are 4 places available, for maximum space and 1-1 creative tuition and exploration. Lisa-Marie is an exhibiting mosaic artist and an Art Teacher with 25 years experience.

I have been an Art and Design teacher for 25 yrs and can happily adapt the creative process to suit different levels of skill and experience, from complete beginner to confident creatives. There will be no judgement or expectation, just a shared enjoyment of the creative process.
You might like to bring an apron, but otherwise all materials and equipment are provided and included in the cost. Whilst cuppa and cake are available, you might like to bring your own snacks or packed lunch for longer workshops.
