Torn Paper Paintings with Wanda Edwards

Torn Paper Paintings is an intense workshop in which students are taught a unique figurative collage technique. Some painting experience would be helpful, but not imperative.


Similar to impressionists’ use of colors or the tiles in a mosaic, Torn Paper Paintings unconventional collage technique creates this same visual interest. Small bits of handmade and hand‐painted papers, rice paper, book pages, and maps, create the color palette from which the image is created. The papers aregiven a pattern and color in advance, but once the piece begins, it relies solely on the colors of the paper. These segments come together to create the image like the dots of pointillism create their painting.
