SUMMARY:Mixed Media Self-Portraits
DESCRIPTION:Share your history visually by using a mix of printmaking and 
 collage on canvas to create self-portraits! Patricia Micca\, artist and 
 owner of Painting Waves\, will lead this mixed media portrait class that 
 will explore 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. Please register as there is a strict cap of 20 slots 
 available!\n\nPlease bring a photograph of yourself 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 is an adult activity\, but will be duplicated for teens 
 on Wednesday\, July 22 - check our calendar.\n\nThis 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.
