If you enjoy the paper-cut art pieces by French artist Matisse, or just like artistic and colorful decor, this class is for you! We will be working in Canva and using their free graphic assets to create poster designs that you can print at home or at a local print shop (for bigger sizes) to decorate your home. This is a fun, creative project with lots of room for personal flair and interpretation, so come with an open mind and use our project as a starting point for your own creativity!

This is an easy project if you are just getting started using Canva, or if you have a little more experience. It will give you the framework for the poster project, suggesting canvas sizes, how to pick a colour palette, font choices and placement, wording and translations, and useful assets within the Canva elements library.

If you are going to print it at home, I suggest sticking with an 8.5 x 11 inch canvas (or whatever dimensions your printer is able to produce). If you are looking for a larger poster size print, you may want to design at 18 x 24 inches.

This is a fun class that will get you designing quickly, so let's head into the design lesson together and make some art that would make Matisse proud... or maybe jealous!
