Workshop Description:
This 4-hours workshop will allow participants to create a contemporary self portrait using an easy (and fun) technique to alter a printed photo. The colors and shapes we choose and develop are an invitation to embrace our sense of self and image with love and compassion.
What can we see when we observe our image? What might be hidden behind our limited vision?
No previous artistic skills required! Attendees will take home a self portrait.
It is limited to 8 participants each time.
The class is designed for adults only.
Participants will need to provide at least two digital images of their faces.
