Bring out your inner artist this spring!
Last year, Studio Calico put out the awesome Toolbox Class which was about four different and fun techniques. A favorite of yours was mixed media and participants wanted to learn more about this. Well, ask and you shall receive...
Today marks the launch of a new class which will teach you about Mixed Media. Usually the classes are four weeks but this one gives you even five weeks to explore different mixed media techniques with master teachers Céline Navarro and Anna-Maria Wolniak. I'm happy to announce that I will be contributing to the class room, too :)
Celine and Anna have prepared a little sneak for you guys so you get a glimpse of what will be taught:

RECOMMENDED SUPPLIES:
Céline, Anna-Maria and us contributors will be using a wide variety of artistic media to create the mixed media techniques. Some of these supplies can be intimidating, so let's break down what you'll need...
- A surface to create on: White cardstock or watercolor paper makes a great base!
- Gel Medium: This helps to prepare your surface for the layers you'll be adding.
- Color: As you can see in the sneaks, many mixed media techniques feature layers of color. You can use watercolors, paint, ink, mist or NeoColors to bring these layers in.
- A way to control where the color goes: Tools like stencils, palette knives, patterned brayers and paint brushes will help you apply color where you want it.
- Extras: Products like glitter and gilding add a little something special to the surface of any project.
