let’s make a little mess today as we dance our joy and our sorrow, our dreams and yearnings. you know it is all alive in us at the same time, so we won’t attempt to separate it. feel it all and move it all in your body and on paper and canvas as as you swoosh and smoosh that paint.
we’ll be making some collage fodder inspired by reflections. we’ll be using our feet, fingerprints, and various objects to move and transfer paint.
grab a few paper grocery bags, your piece of loose canvas, and your paints, book pages and magazine or printed images. find some space you wouldn’t mind making a bit of a mess in. i went outside on my deck for this one.
tear open the paper bags and tape them to your floor with masking tape. lay down the canvas. mine was a bit flimsy, so i needed to tape it down as well. pour, splatter, and smear some paint, and get dancing.
after you make the prints, and your paper bags and canvas are dry, you can also tear them up and save any interesting pieces for collage fodder.
enjoy!
