Summary

Sixty years before the embrace of collage techniques by avant-garde artists of the early twentieth century, aristocratic Victorian women were already experimenting with photocollage. The compositions they made with photographs and watercolors are fantastical, combining human heads and animal bodies, placing people into imaginary landscapes, and morphing faces into common household objects.

With Amy you will create your own whimsical collage. All supplies will be included along with instruction from Amy. You will also receive a card in your supply kit so you can gift your creation to someone on Valentine’s Day!

This program will be virtual. While the painting will be guided, you will create a painting that is uniquely yours. A little nervous? Don't worry!  Amy will guide you through step by step to recreate the featured painting. Participants have the choice of providing their own materials, or with more than a week's notice, we can ship everything you'll need. By the end of the night you will have fun creating and love the art you have created!

A little about our instructor, Amy:
Amy has always had a love for art. She owned her own art business for years before entering art education. Amy has taught art for 19 years to all levels of students. Now she is painting as a member of Art Gym Denver and working at the Molly Brown House Museum.
“I found my heart in my art. It all started with a psychic reading! The psychic stated that I was going to find my artistic expression and that it would be “free and uninhibited.” After painting in a controlled way for most of my life, that sounded very appealing. Color started to come forward in my painting. Color has always been captivating to me and I have been told I have a gifted eye for it. Color propelled me into action. Paint subjects you love. By following my intuition splashing, dripping and varying my brush strokes, I created art I truly love.” – Amy Marsh
