SUMMARY:Zoom - Gel Printing Quilt Monotypes
DESCRIPTION:This is a fun and very creative class where you learn to set up a workstation to create colored\, painted paper sheets using gel plates\, stencils and markers.  Experiment with masking techniques using gauze\, acrylics\, and metallic paints\, etc.  After creating a variety of prints\, choose your “Best and Brightest” as well as a few quieter designs.  The instructor will help you work on layout design to create compositional unity before gluing.  Then learn to prepare your support and to adhere each print. Finally\, use gloss\, satin or matte medium as a final sealer.   You will have prints left to create more compositions on your own.  Material list available upon registration. \nRegina Thomas’ collage and mixed media art is a mélange of visual stimuli\, colors\, and shapes involving different genres from the representational to the abstract.  These multi-layered works portray her view of the world\, never realistic\, injecting her own narratives\, metaphors\, and icons.  Regina works instinctually\, and her desire is to stimulate and intrigue the viewer\, make a connection\, bringing their own experiences to the work. \nRegina has lived and traveled throughout Asia and Europe.  While in London\, she attended Richmond University concentrating on the Art Disciplines as well as Studio classes.  Upon her return to the states she continued refining her art through classes and workshops at RISD (Rhode Island School of Design)\, The New Art Center in Newton – MA\, South Shore Art Center – MA\, West Hartford Art League\, Creative Arts Workshop/New Haven\, CT\, Yale University and The British Art Museum. \nRegina has been included in many juried exhibitions in New England. Thomas shows in private galleries and has private collectors across the U.S.\, Europe\, South America and Asia. Her most recent shows have been at The John Slade Ely House in New Haven\, and The Spectrum Gallery in Centerbrook where she also holds classes in collage and mixed media art. \nDates:  Tuesdays\, 3/25; 4/1\, 4/8\, 4/15\, 4/22 \nTime: 12:30 PM – 2:30 PM \nCost: $140 per person
