You might want to take a few extra days to en joy the area! Relax from you days in the studio at the local hot sprin gs, the deepest in the world! There are many places to stay in Pagosa Springs ranging from motels to various vacation rentals and condos.\nC ecil explains, “Collage art is a constructive approach to creating a rtistic images capitalizing on the use of found or prepared materials arranged in creative ways to arrive at a final composition that is oft en surprising and unexpected. A collage can be as simple as gluing one piece of paper to another or as complex as one can imagine.  A colla ge artist needs a wide range of techniques or bag of tricks in order t o achieve their vision. However, with practice one can achieve compell ing and very personal images with nothing more than scraps of found ma terial and some paste.”\nThe instructor’s process….\n“I work a long the lines of strategy adding simple techniques where needed…wit h an exploration of the fundamental principles of design, composition and historical precedent. Using examples from the Collage Museum's ext ensive collection of thousands of works of art…we will explore conte mporary collage art trends and also explore professional practices and standards, studio organization, inventory and documentation systems. … I will work with each person at whatever stage they are at begin ner to advanced and suggest ways to amplify one’s abilities and impr ove one’s results and increase confidence.   I will be watching fo r 'stops' in each person that may be holding back their creative flow and devise ways to overcome them or work around them. I will also be w orking with each artist to get an idea of what they wish to achieve th rough their work as a collage artist and suggest ways to help them rea ch their goals.”\nCost: $350.00\nTo sign up, send a note of intentio n to participate by email with the subject line COLLAGE WORKSHOP to in fo@collagemuseum.com, please mail $175 deposit to hold your place to:\ nCecil Touchon\n135 Country Center Drive Ste F #10\nPagosa Springs, Co lorado 81147\n817-944-4000\nBalance of $175 is due no later than one w eek in advace.\nDeposit is non-refundable! However, if something happ ens and you can’t make it, the deposit may be applied to a future wo rkshop.\n\nFor more information visit https://collagesociety.ning.com/ events/collage-workshops-at-the-collage-museum DTSTART;TZID=America/Atikokan:20120920T180000 DTEND;TZID=America/Atikokan:20121110T190000 CATEGORIES:workshop LOCATION:At the Collage Museum WEBSITE:http://collagemuseum.com URL:http://collagemuseum.com CONTACT:817-944-4000 ORGANIZER;CN="Cecil Touchon":https://collagesociety.ning.com/profile/C ecilTouchon ATTACH;FMTTYPE="image/jpeg": ATTENDEE;ROLE=REQ-PARTICIPANT;PARTSTAT=ACCEPTED;RSVP=TRUE;CN="Cecil To uchon":https://collagesociety.ning.com/profile/CecilTouchon ATTENDEE;ROLE=REQ-PARTICIPANT;PARTSTAT=TENTATIVE;RSVP=TRUE;CN="olga lu pi":https://collagesociety.ning.com/profile/olupi END:VEVENT END:VCALENDAR
