Upcycle Sculpture Lab: Collage and Wood Cutouts
Cloudland, 900 B WESTERN AVENUE, PETALUMA, CA 94952-2934
- Visual Arts
- Arts and Crafts
This collage series will be inspired by materials donated to the studio by west coast painter and printmaker Cynthia Hibbard and remnants collected from Digital Grange fine art print studio. Students will learn to repurpose these unique materials into works on paper. I will also collaborate with students to transfer their original drawings onto upcycled plywood to make wooden cutouts. We will discuss various methods used by muralists when scaling designs up in size. I will jigsaw pieces at my home wood shop, but have them back for the students to paint in the studio.

Studio class series offer instruction in fiber arts, illustration techniques, sculpture, and more! Students are encouraged play an active role in the studio gallery, developing skills in communication, project development and, instillation. In an age defined by digital distraction and shortened attention spans, I see art as a vital way to restore patience, focus, and imagination. My curricula emphasize long-term project development, guiding students through the frustrations and triumphs of taking an idea from concept to completion. The process not only builds technical skills but also fosters resilience, pride, and the confidence to share one’s voice with the larger community.
