Dragonflies, Backgrounds and Multi-Media

Multi-Media and Unusual Backgrounds

Unique Background Paper made on Photocopier
Janet Snell will lead us through this project that will have you busy with several different media as she teaches unusual background preparation.
You, too, can create a unique background paper with a photocopier and antique documents you find in a family trove or in an antique store. The paper covers a piece of hard board or student board and is finished with satin varnish. Janet always makes sure we learn a new technique...
Working with acrylic paints and rubber stamps the member's works of art included waterlilies, leaves and a dragonfly.
Janet, a member of DASF, is an experienced teacher and has painted with many of the "big-brushes" such as JoSonja and Sherry Nelson. She has taught at the National Convention and she has been published in the Decorative Painter. It was an exciting and greatly enjoyed program. We thank Janet for sharing it with us!
