Student Showcase: Collaged Landscapes

ByCrafts for Wellbeing 24 March 202231 March 2022

I just love the variety of styles and themes that everyone chose, and the wonderful way in which they executed their ideas. Wonderful work, everyone!

If you would like to try your hand at collage (and get stuck in to the wonderful pastime of playing with paper and glue!), then please sign up to my mailing list, and I’ll send you details of when my next workshops are.
