Here’s what Heather wants you to know about this Course:
“I’ve been searching the last few months to find a project that would be a good follow up to my Mixed Media for Beginners Course…and I feel like I have succeeded! I’m so excited to present Mixed Media II – Extending Your Skills! I want my newest course to help you to build confidence in the studio and help you claim your identity as an Artist and Maker!
Join me in this journey as we learn new techniques and apply them to a gorgeous project! In this course, you’ll learn…
- construction techniques using chipboard, foam core board, cardboard, books, and wood
- how to make 3D elements using paper
- my favorite faux brickwork technique
- binding techniques for journals
- how to rethink elements around the house and create new surprises!
I’ll be building a foundation of techniques and a Way of Seeing and Thinking that will enrich your work (and your life!) from now on! By the end of this course, you will have created an Artwork that will delight and amaze your senses! More importantly, you will have surprised and delighted yourself by discovering inner resources that will help you create with less angst & more joy!
In Mixed Media II – Extending Your Skills, I’ll be emphasizing creative use of common materials, rather than a reliance on name brand products. This is a very deliberate choice, and one that forces us to turn inward, to our own ingenuity. When we begin to examine our environments for the possibilities inherent in everyday objects and materials, we can glimpse greater possibilities in ourselves.
With a focus on using what you have, I’ve taken a found wooden box and I’ve transformed it in to an in interactive theater, decked out with details and decorative trims. This project is complete with hidden compartments, bejeweled accents, and interactive scenery to entice your senses.
As we work through the techniques and project, you will learn my favorite techniques for:
- sanding and surface preparation
- distressing
- mixed media construction
- faux painting and finishing
- decoupage, gluing and adhesion
- adornment and embellishment
Along the way, I’ll also be sharing my Mixed Media Studio Secrets, including how to make a low/no cost distressing stain at home, and do-it-yourself sticky mats and sanding jigs.
At the end of this course, my goal is two-fold:
I want you 1) to have a tool box full of techniques and skills you can apply to any project, and 2) the imagination & self-confidence to seek out new projects and transform everyday items, like a wooden box, in to an entirely new world.
There has never been another YOU! Your vision is unique and important.
As we progress through the material together, I hope to help you see a larger version of YOU – a version that expands to embrace a greater level of confidence and creativity. Please join me for Mixed Media II – Extending Your Skills.
I double-dare you to emerge from this experience and NOT call yourself an Artist!”
Read what some of our Students had to say about this Course:
“I wouldn’t miss a chance to learn under the guidance of the master of mixed media… Heather Tracy. What a complete and utter bargain! The skills you learn can be transferred to future works of art. I can personally recommend this course to anyone wanting to become a mixed media master in their own right.” Marina M.
“This course is one of my top 3 online purchases of the year. As someone new to mixed media, I want it to be about the How To, and Heather delivers gorgeously.” Heidi B.
“I’ve almost finished the videos and can say without reservation the course is worth the time and the money ten-fold. ” Janet B.
“Wow! I’m right smack in the middle of watching Graphic Fairy eCouse-MM2. I don’t think I have experienced a more thorough class. The video segments are beautifully recorded with exceptional quality.” Kim W.
“I’ve purchased online classes from a variety of sources and they are definitely not created equal, nor equally creative. I take eCourses to make my coursework money go further and to learn techniques, but some teachers are so casual, even sloppy or inept (no editing, hands out of frame, spending too much time on something tedious and glossing over others with not enough info given out). The Graphics Fairy classes I’ve taken so far (taught by Heather Tracy) are high quality classes. Heather is a generous teacher, has great ideas and breaks down each technique into easy to understand steps. The courses are stuffed with content, tips, alternative materials and sources and there is a FB support group so the camaraderie of an actual class is available if you want it. I am impressed! Mixed media is not my primary medium but I’m still l learning things that will transfer to my other work!” Lynette F.
“This is the second course I’ve signed up for with Heather Tracy and I would not have missed this for the world. Each step of the project is carefully thought out and clearly explained. Heather is both a generous and genius artist and person. I have learned so many new techniques from her that I use over and over again in my own art. With all the thought and detail she puts into her classes, she could easily charge more. I’ve taken classes with other artists, but hers are far and away my favorites and I recommend them to everyone no matter their skill level.” Candi H.
