Materials for this program Supply List Resize text Empress of the Blues, 1974, by Romare Bearden While Romare Bearden (1911-1988) worked in many mediums from oil and watercolor to printmaking, he is best known for his mixed-media collages and photomontages. His expressive compositions feature urban scenes, rural life, and the jazz scene. After looking at Bearden’s works of art and the coded messages in his collages, students try their hand at creating Bearden-inspired mixed-media compositions using a variety of fabrics, papers, stencils, photographs, paint, and drawing materials on a variety of surfaces. Elements of composition are covered alongside technical components like adhesives and supports. Development of personal style and visual storytelling are encouraged. Special Program Information The instructor is Sandra Warren Gobar. This program includes 3 sessions, 5 hours each.
