Assorted Tips & Tricks: A Collage 101 with Kevin Sampsell<\/h2>\n

Working with a wide range of source materials, Kevin Sampsell\u2019s collages swim in the pool of pop culture. At times they can be silly; at other times they can be astute studies of composition and color. \u201cI\u2019d been doing word collages for a long time but then started–in 2014–using manipulated-by-hand images (from old magazines and books) and became much more serious and passionate about it,\u201d said Sampsell. In this workshop, Sampsell will share some of his collage work and offer some tips and tricks for making collage that he has come across on his journey through the medium. If you\u2019re new or curious about collage, this is a great place to start.<\/p>\n
