Course Description: Soul Mantras
Mary Beth Shaw, Instructor
“I developed Soul Mantras to insert affirmations into my own work and help me express messages to myself, sometimes hidden, sometimes obvious. I think we are going to have a good time together!”
I am going to show you tons of techniques that you will use in this class, and as you move forward in your mixed media artwork.
You will learn how to:
- Use stencils so it does not look like you used stencils
- Use writing to embed your work with meaning
- See found objects differently
- Layer
- Stretch your improvisational art muscles
- Work with a limited palette
- Make your own collage parts
- Gain extra collage components
- Make drips
- Mark making with your tools
- Work on different substrates
- Float, cradle, and wire up your art.

Loved this Course!

I loved learning how to get from an idea to an expression of the idea. Mary Beth's process is easy to understand and it was fun to watch and get ideas for my own work.

You can't go wrong with the instruction Mary Beth provides. She is very clear and concise in her presentation and shares so much of her collage process. Thoroughly enjoyable!
