Every time I teach a class I bring a demo panel with me. On it I can demonstrate each of the materials and techniques that we talk about in the class. I never have a plan about what my subject matter is, I just start loading the panel with marks and colors. Here is one panel (16x16) in three stages from the beginning weeks of my mixed media workshop:
ink, spray, gouache, stencil, soft pastel, charcoal
all of the above + acrylic, flexible modeling paste, collaged printed imagery, scraping, heavy gloss medium
all of the above + cheesecloth and fabric, water soluble colored pencils, oil stick, oil pastel
Then a surprise hour long session of co-painting with one of the participants! Here are details of the two pieces:
