I'm really excited about doing Intersession classes with the students this fall.
Outside of teaching, I've had my own graphic design business for about a dozen years and I love working and playing with images. I've loved the collage art form for many years so my first Intersession is about digital collage - what it is and how to do it.
Students will learn to use the Photoshop-like Krita program and the basics of image manipulation and layering to create collage art. We'll also look at historic examples of collage and learn a little about the history of the form.
The collage above is one I made using a set of images I collected for the students to use in our first experiment, where we will all share the same set of images and see how many different ways we can create with them. (It is called "Facing MAD (Mutual Assured Destruction) - The Kewpies Offer Cupcakes to the Skinned Man").
