In this workshop, artist Jessie Renew will impart her techniques of creating mixed media and collaged artworks made from everyday items. Participants will learn about Jessie’s approach to cultivating creativity, seeing potential in everyday items, and processes of making art with these things using weaving, fusing, and adhering.
