Mending Workshop:
Watercolor Undercover with Sam J!
Sam Jacona brings us a custom workshop this month for our Mending theme. Visual art play with two different mediums!
With Watercolor Undercover, we can connect to the sense of playfulness and spontaneity, aligning with TermiteTV values. This is a workshop that creates a way to play with multiple different materials to use the spontaneous effect of water and the control of crayons or oil pastels to uncover something the artists likes to express. With that said, we are mending the two worlds of water and wax in a way that is similar to oil and water. Finding a way to mend them into a new way to create, design, story-tell.
The goal of this workshop is to show how different mediums can work together. Using oil pastels or crayons to make shapes and uncover them with watercolor. Using a predictable medium with a more unpredictable one.
