Come and create a self portrait with paper collage. While creating this piece of work you will be encouraged to be spontaneous and intuitive and quieten the mind and let your heart and hands lead the way. By selecting images that speak to you, you will create a portrait of your inner world, unique life story, and outlook on life. Collage is a relaxing and highly therapeutic art medium.
