Once upon a time ….. with Rachel Zimmermann
Particpants will participate in a sampling session, making collage papers using print, paint, resist, inscribe and stamping techniques. Using a process of cut and paste and lots of foam tape, participants will compose an illustration that reflects the essence of their story. The workshop will provide an oppotunity for participants to explore the potential of ‘easy to access’ materials and be inspired to utilise the taught techniques within their own classrooms for narrative or cross curricular projects.
