Join Art-O-Maddic artist, Holly Kroening for an afternoon of making a mixed media “Kitchen Chicken.”

You will go home with a 16 x 20 canvas mixed media of bright colors and your creative touch. She will support each individual step-by-step. Everything you need to make the “Kitchen Chicken” is included except you will need to bring the following:

• Your own good pair of seeing scissors that come to a point (JoAnn Fabrics)

This class is for anyone who wants to experience a new medium. Holly will show you how to mix it up by using paint, fabric, Coffee grounds, and other materials.

I look forward to meeting you and having fun together. Space is limited to nine students.

Join us for a fun-filled workshop Saturday March 11th from 1-2pm at the Art-O-Maddic Gallery where we’ll learn all about native bees.  These insects play essential roles in maintaining a balanced ecosystem, and are important for pollinating all kinds of plants. But did you know that we have over 4,000 native bees right here in North America, and that many species nest in the ground or plant stems?

We’ll start out the class with a lesson on the different types of native bees here in the Willamette Valley, and the various kinds of habitat they need. Then we will decorate mason bee houses. Students will also receive several mason bee cocoons to start their own colony, seed packets to plant native flowers in their yard, a coloring book with recipes and plenty of information on native bees, and a poster with the different native bees found right here in Oregon. 

Location: Art-O-Maddic Gallery in Canby

Cost: $50

Date and time: 1-2pm Saturday March 11th 

This class is for ages 6 and up 

We will have 15 spots available, and parents are welcome to join their children.

If you’ve made abstract collages, you are ready to take mixed media to a new level. Learn to use torn and cut maps and magazine pages to create striking, realistic landscapes. Discover how to use recycled paper as if it is paint to create a unique work of art. You will be guided through the technical challenge of making realistic renderings from recycled materials, and produce one or two frame-ready works of art.
