Canvas Mosaics: "Spring Eggs", art-making workshop.

Sharon Bourque presents an art-making workshop of 'canvas mosaics' for the theme "Spring Eggs".  12 people max.  $30 per registration. (Note: $10 out of each registration goes to a local charity (The Boys and Girls Club of Riverview).  Come have fun and support a great cause!

Process: Bottom canvas pre-painted silver with a golden egg.  Second canvas will be where you paint and play with colours.  Shapes and designs are cut out of the second canvas and glued into the golden egg, letting you design a Spring/Easter egg.  Like mosaics, the colourful canvas is cut into shapes and pieces, or squares (like canvas tiles), and are used to create the art-design on the golden egg area. This art is not done on eggs. Its on canvas.  The metalic painted canvas is prepped before the workshop to help save time, so that the 'designed egg' part can be completed within the 2 hour workshop class. Stencils and design samples will be provided. 

This is a basic level workshop ~  to come have fun playing with painted colours and cut out shapes. Samples of finished canvas "Spring Egg" art will be on hand to discuss techniques and designing tips.  (Note:  The aim is to focus on the egg design but if time permits, if you do not want the silver background, you can paint over it with colours. The silver paint will be dry to allow a paint over. The pre-paint is just to save time as the workshop is only 2 hours.)  

Please wear clothing suitable to working with paint in case you get paint on your clothes.

Art project results will vary, as is the nature of creativity.
