Student Showcase: Collaged Landscapes

ByCrafts for Wellbeing

Tearing and cutting and gluing pieces of paper is so therapeutic, and my students certainly found this to be so in yesterday’s Collaged Landscapes workshops. 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.
