Mixed Media Art Workshop

Learn how to create your own mixed media artwork using a variety of techniques



3 hours Class size 1 to 4     label £38

In this three-hour workshop, you will have the opportunity to learn a variety of mixed media techniques and create your very own 8" x 10" mounted piece of artwork. Whether you're a beginner or someone with more experience looking to develop your skills, this workshop is suitable for all levels.

During the workshop, you'll have the chance to explore different artists' work for inspiration, experiment with layout designs and composition, and learn about color palettes and balance. We will delve into various mixed media techniques, including collage, creating texture with modelling paste, adding color with distress inks, and even incorporating stitch and text/phrases into your artwork.

If you've attended a previous Gelli Print workshop, this is the perfect opportunity to further develop your Gelli prints. However, if you haven't, feel free to bring along any images of your own, such as photographs or magazine cutouts, that you would like to work with.

Our experienced instructor, Clare, will guide you through the workshop, offering support and expertise to help you achieve your desired results. This workshop also provides a safe and encouraging environment for beginners, so don't be afraid to join us and explore your creativity.

By the end of the workshop, you'll have your very own unique mixed media piece to take home and display proudly. Don't miss out on this opportunity to learn new techniques, develop your skills, and create something truly special. We look forward to seeing you there!

Please note: This workshop is designed to build upon previous Gelli Plate print workshops with Clare, but attendees are welcome to join and bring their own images to work with.

Clare is a surface pattern designer and printmaker based in the UK who delivers creative workshops from her home studio in Cheshire. Clare has over 15 years of teaching experience in the FE sector and has recently made the leap to create her own home wear range and deliver workshops full time.

Being inspired by nature means Clare can’t resist collecting plants and beach combing while on family walks with Bobby, the Bichon Frise, who is rather famous with the locals and known as ‘no-eye Bob’ (yes, he has no eyes!).

Clare has a passion for creating and printing designs beginning with one-off gelli plate prints, which are then layered using digital techniques to form final designs.
