In this class you will learn to develop your own vocabulary of shapes to use in collages large and small. As you will using block-printed papers created in this class: bit.ly/patternedpapers , it is best if you book that session first. If you do have a selection of patterned papers that you'd like to use without having attended my other class, however, you are also welcome to join but please contact me if you're not sure about the suitability of your materials. 
We will look at ways of generating simple shapes and work on creating effective compositions which you will be able to use when creating your own collages, greeting cards and gift tags.

**I can also offer a 'private' version of this class for a minimum of 7 participants at a time to suit you.** This is a great opportunity to join in a creative activity with your family,  friends or colleagues. Please contact me to discuss if interested.


Gabriela Szulman Art

Gabriela is an artist and maker. She creates prints and collages, greeting cards, jewellery and scarves with images inspired by memory, nostalgia and a love of everything vintage. 

Her work is often humorous and whimsical – unless her romantic side takes over and then you enter into a fairy-tale territory of old-fashioned script, pages of books and music scores populated by chivalrous gentlemen, glamorous ladies, butterflies and rabbits. She blends a fusion of painting and digital media – acrylic, watercolour and ink with digital print – onto paper and canvas to create pictures, quirky greetings cards and a range of “art to wear” which so far includes silk scarves and a jewellery collection. 

Old photograph albums, vintage documents, magazines, books, cards, knitting pattern books and scraps of writing are things that make Gabriela very happy. Second-hand bookshops, junk shops, market stalls, attics and long-forgotten boxes are her treasure trove.

In addition to her own creative pursuits, she is passionate about inspiring other people and sharing her skills, so she devotes a good portion of her time to teaching.
