ACT 2 MIXED MEDIA COLLAGE CLASS MATERIALS LIST
Please bring the supplies listed above for watercolor materials and/or acrylic materials, if that is what you enjoy working with.
FOR THIS INTERMEDIAT ACT 2 mixed media class we will also be exploring paper collage.
The definition of collage, which is a French word refers to the art of cutting out and applying different types of papers or objects to another surface.

An assortment of different types of art papers.
For collage one can use newspaper clippings or bits and pieces of magazines or....?
Thin computer/typing type paper.
Oriental papers, such as "Masa" paper or rice paper.
I use a type of paper referred to as Japanese lace papers, which are available at Spokane Art Supply. Some have patterns and some have fiber running through.
You can also use plain white tissue paper like you find in the gift wrapping department of your local supermarket or even newspaper clippings.
I recommend
A Golden or Liquitex thick heavy body medium ( the type that is in a jar not a liquid in a bottle)
Assorted other tools, you might want to have available:
a Brayer or spoon,
