Welcome
WELCOME!! and YAY!! I am so happy you are here!!
I am absolutely thrilled to share with you the great JOY of collage!
My wish is that you approach this process in a carefree way with freedom, play, and fun in mind.
There is no way you can make a mistake in this class 🙂 These are simply ways I have discovered that help me build layers and learn something new each day as I attempt to share my way of seeing the world.
I applaude you for showing up, moving your hands and allowing your instincts to shine! nuthin’ better!!!
Looking forward to communicating with you all. A giant Heartfelt thanks to you for allowing me the honor of being a part of your creative play.
xoxo

Supplies
- Two substrates to paint on (either a canvas, a canvas board, or a wood panel or box), about 11″x14″ or larger
- One quart of white- or cream-colored, flat house paint, any kind (from the hardware store).
- Raw Umber acrylic paint; other colors of your choice. (Lynn loves Cadmium Red Deep Hue for her red… Liquitex Basics acrylic Paint work well and are affordable .)
- Liquitex Gloss Medium
- #3 or #4 pencil
- Collage fodder. A selection of old papers, new papers, patterned and solid colors. You should also have old family or found photos printed in color on heavy paper to use as a focal point (Lynn recommends 80# or card stock) and 8.5″x11″ colored card stock works well for the flower piece (several different colors).
- Plastic scraper (from the hardware store… even an old credit card will work)
- Serrated sewing tracing wheel for “dot dot dot”
- Several paintbrushes, range of sizes
- Set of alphabet stamps
- White rag
- Container for water
Nuts & Bolts
Here’s how this online class works:
• As a self-study class, so you have access to all of the lessons right now and can work the lessons on your own timetable.
• You have indefinite access to this class.
• You can (optionally) share your work with Lynn via email or via the class Facebook page. Since this is now a self-study class, you will need to let Lynn know if you upload work, as she doesn’t check the Facebook page as regularly. Click this link and ask to join the group!
• Class fee is good for participants living in a single household.
