July 25-26
This is a 2-day workshop. All classes run 9 – 4 pm each day with lunch included from 12 – 1 pm.
In this two-day class we will begin to think through a few pieces of writing or a larger writing project using paint, found and cut up images, and words. Through play with images and texts, we can loosen our ways of approaching our written work and find new ways of writing, editing and thinking through a small or large project. I will offer writing prompts to help generate poems and prose, and provide instruction on playing with colour and images using watercolour paint, pencil crayons and pens. Through writing and mark making, you can explore multiple ways of creating and editing. We will create 2 full spread pages of writing and visuals and work on several new pieces of writing in this class.
