SUMMARY:Three Day Collage Workshop with Cecil Touchon
DESCRIPTION:\n(All supplies will be provided however participants are 
 welcome to bring additional materials to use and share. Early sign-up 
 is strongly encouraged – Touchon’s last workshop was sold out almo
 st right away.  Maximum of 10 participants accepted.)\nAbout the work
 shop…..\nThis is the first in a series of Summer and Fall collage ar
 t workshops in the beautiful resort town of Pagosa Springs, Colorado. 
 You might want to take a few extra days to enjoy the area! Relax from 
 you days in the studio at the local hot springs, the deepest in the wo
 rld! There are many places to stay in Pagosa Springs ranging from mote
 ls to various vacation rentals and condos.\nCecil explains, “Collage
  art is a constructive approach to creating artistic images capitalizi
 ng on the use of found or prepared materials arranged in creative ways
  to arrive at a final composition that is often surprising and unexpec
 ted. A collage can be as simple as gluing one piece of paper to anothe
 r or as complex as one can imagine.  A collage artist needs a wide ra
 nge of techniques or bag of tricks in order to achieve their vision. H
 owever, with practice one can achieve compelling and very personal ima
 ges with nothing more than scraps of found material and some paste.”
 \nThe instructor’s process….\n“I work along the lines of strateg
 y adding simple techniques where needed…with an exploration of the f
 undamental principles of design, composition and historical precedent.
  Using examples from the Collage Museum's extensive collection of thou
 sands of works of art…we will explore contemporary collage art trend
 s and also explore professional practices and standards, studio organi
 zation, inventory and documentation systems.  … I will work with ea
 ch person at whatever stage they are at beginner to advanced and sugge
 st ways to amplify one’s abilities and improve one’s results and i
 ncrease confidence.   I will be watching for 'stops' in each person 
 that may be holding back their creative flow and devise ways to overco
 me them or work around them. I will also be working with each artist t
 o get an idea of what they wish to achieve through their work as a col
 lage artist and suggest ways to help them reach their goals.”\nCost:
