This workshop combines a variety of mixed media techniques to create art in a postcard format, 4” x 6” that can be mailed, traded, or gifted. Mail art has a long artistic history as artists have always communicated their visual ideas and images to friends, lovers, and acquaintances in this way. Each student will create a number of cards using simple relief printing, transferred imagery, stencils, and hand-carved rubber stamps. Digital images, photographs, and collage elements can be further enhanced with watercolor, paint, and colored pencils. This small format allows big room for experimentation. All levels welcome. A $20 materials fee is payable to the instructor on the day of class. Please visit montclairartmuseum.org for a list of additional supplies.
