Teen Art Program: Mixed Media Self-Portraits In-Person
A mixed media portrait class explores the creative possibilities of combining different artistic materials and techniques. The class emphasizes both technical skills—like proportion, and composition—and personal expression, encouraging artists to move beyond realism and incorporate symbolism or abstraction. Through guided projects, participants develop their own unique style while gaining confidence in blending traditional and contemporary approaches to portraiture.
Students will bring a photograph of themselves which will be used to create a print. Students will learn various printmaking techniques along with collage. Bring your creative side and an open mind!
All skill levels are welcome.
This lecture is part of the library's Community History Project, and was made possible by a grant from the New Jersey Council for the Humanities, a state partner of the National
Endowment for the Humanities.
