Experimenting With Mixed Media Collage

Do you know how to experiment? That sounds like a silly question until you think of experimenting as happening within a certain environment that's free from expectations, free from demands for productivity or remuneration, and free from the necessity for an outcome that makes you feel a certain way. Oh, ok, that sounds a little bit trickier.
When I learned what real experimentation mode was, it changed my work, my art practice, and most importantly, me--all for the better.
If you're interested in the upcoming class on this special process of making your own botanical papers and layering them for dreamy and airy botanicals, then sign up here and you'll be notified as soon as it's ready: marabethquinart.myflodesk.com...
This next couple weeks I am joining 13 other collage artists in teaching a class at The Collage Makers Summit 2024. All of the 30 minutes classes are yours to have full access to indefinitely when you enroll. I will be doing a 30 minute demo on this process so you get a small taste of what it's about, and of course you get 13 other collage artists with their own classes.

What a beautiful video! I just watched your presentation on the Collage conference and immediately signed your wait list. I can't wait for this class. My paper is measured and waiting for me to begin.❤

Beautiful ❤😊 makes me want to push outside my comfort zone!

[@marabethquinart]

You should! I regularly do it now after years of letting resistance stop me and it’s been a game changer.

[@ilenearena9166]

I'm amazed at how fast this piece came together for you. I just made a big mess of a painting collage that had no cohesion 😮

[@marabethquinart]

Oh I have plenty of those too! 😆

Hi Marybeth! I love your style and you are a great communicator! I hope to take one of your classes soon and was wondering what tissue paper you use? The brand I used to buy is no longer available and I miss it. Thank you!!

[@marabethquinart]

I use several different kinds I just order on Amazon. Each brand seems to have its own characteristics, so I just experiment with different ones.
