Mixed Media+Collage Art Classes
I remember seeing Mixed Media Art for the first time when I was in my early twenties and not believing that I could ever create any art that was that incredible. It all looked so beyond my artistic abilities that I didn’t even try. Decades later I was introduced to the world of online mixed media art workshops and I was smitten! I took it upon myself to make up for lost time and, I’m still learning every thing that I can about mixed media collage art. This category is very wide ranging, from handmade greeting cards, kindness cards and tag art, to Artist Trading Cards, and Postcard swapping, to handmade books and giftable art projects and more. I love working with instructors from all over the globe to bring Fodder School and all of the other mixed media and collage art courses to life for you here on Willa Workshops,
