2009 Workshops

Collage & Mixed-Media Workshops - 2009

Making It Personal: Beyond Scrapbooking

At the Sycamore Gallery & Studios
120 Sycamore Place - Decatur, GA 30030

Using "ephemera" (found paper), create personal and meaningful art, that like a scrapbook, can tell a "visual story". Bring to the class photos or photo copies of important people in your life, or in some cases, a favorite pet as well. Bring letters, postcards, or copies that also can be used for your artwork.  We will be cutting the various papers, so if they are archival, be sure to make good color or black and white copies that can be cut up.  As a mixed-media work, we may incorporate pastel, paint, ink, with  paper and fabric cutouts.

Her more recent work incorporates ephemera from family letters, newspaper clippings, photo copies, and other found papers.  For over 30 years, as a teaching artist with a BS Education degree from Syracuse University,  Flora has taught people of all ages, from elementary school children  up to senior citizens.  While living in Atlanta, she worked with Young Audiences – Woodruff Center and led the Sunday Studio family art program at the High Museum of Art.
