It's time to cook up some creativity!

You're invited to a fanciful feast of color, textures and luscious layers that will tempt even the most discriminating painter's palette. Whether you love experimenting with your own flavors, or following a recipe to a T, Flavor for Mixed Media will be your guide to handcrafting some of your most delectable works of art yet! Artist Mary Beth Shaw will share with you her mixed-media painting techniques for working with color, incorporating many different textures, creating multiple layers, developing a distinct flavor and making all sorts of clever combinations. In addition to home-style favorites such as collage tips and tricks, and inspiring works by "dinner guest" artists, other things you'll sample from this menu include:

  • How to experiment with color mixing and develop your own tasty triads
  • Achieving texture with unusual tools such as a cheese grater or stencils and "icing"
  • Using what's already in your art-making pantry: clever new ways to use what's on hand
  • Creating depth to your work with cutout shapes or Plexiglas
  • Doodling, bookmaking, collagraph printing, actual food recipes and more!
  • Clear off the counter and get cracking! Let Flavor for Mixed Media tempt your creative palette today.
