Josette Urso: Collage to Painting/Minimal to Maximal

The Artist Josette Urso stands in front of her work which is large colorful and abstract. She has art supplies in front of her. Teaching Artist. Studio Class.

Josette Urso: Collage to Painting/Minimal to Maximal

Monday – Friday

Oct. 30 – Nov. 3, 2023

10:00 am – 4:00 pm

This course explores the interrelationship between collage and painting. Collage will be used as a means of sketching and as a springboard for ideas in painting. Work will begin simply becoming progressively more complex as participants push the limits of the mediums and their ideas. Work done in one medium will influence one’s vision in the other, and the collaboration between process and concept will encourage the production of less planned and more unexpected images.

The aim is to refresh the artist’s vision while exploring the painterly possibilities of alternative media. New media spark new ways of thinking and collage is a rich medium providing an infinite range of possibilities.

The class is open to individuals of all levels.
