Would you like to learn mindfulness techniques to help boost your creative flow? Then this class is for you! It's the first in a series of creative tutorials 'Cutting Edges' in which students can explore creative collage and mindfulness techniques; inspired by important collage and photomontage artists and art movements. In this first class we will look at the photomontages of Hannah Hoch; the only female artist from Berlin's Dada art movement.

Taking you through my creative process step-by-step I will show you:

How to be more playful and mindful in your creative approach
How to build and organise a collage materials resource bank
How to use simple materials such as paper, glue and scissors to create a Dada inspired artwork
Composition, cutting and tearing techniques

The class is suitable for complete beginners as well as those wishing to further explore and develop their creative approach; using a variety of creative techniques and processes. Moreover, it is geared towards those who wish to be inspired by important contemporary and historical artists.

The class aim is to inspire students to explore and employ a variety of techniques and resources to boost creative productivity, play with new processes, and help alleviate creative block.

The guided meditation is optional so if you prefer to dive straight into the Art History & other sections after the introduction - then feel free to skip the meditation! But I recommend you give it a go!
