Between Shadow and Light Landscape Collage Brooch (Adv.) with Maggie Maggio

In this fast-paced workshop you will learn how to mix customized

colors inspired by your favorite landscape, explore what nature can

teach us about adding depth to our work, practice troubleshooting

to get gorgeous color combinations, and collage a mini landscape

brooch to take home.

Start by instinctively mixing colors to match your landscape using the Maggio Mixing Map

as a guide. Once you have the colors you need, Maggie will demonstrate her advanced

Watercolor techniques for creating color-washed sheets to mimic Sky, Mountains, Trees,

Fields and Water. Have fun exploring new ways to combine a variety of standard polymer

techniques with the Watercolor technique as you make your personal collection of sheets.

Play with tearing and laying out your sheets until you have an abstract collage that feels

inspired by your landscape and then mount your collage in a 2” (50 mm) brass frame

without using glue.
