Collage Mandala Magic - Saturday, November 14 Saturday, November 14 | 9:30am - 12:30pm Instructor: MJ Connors Davison Materials Fee: Select Member Status Mandalas are timeless expressions of insights and give a glimpse into the inner self. In this workshop you will connect to the unconscious and create your own personal mandala. You will be introduced to the history of collage and mandalas, and you will learn the significance of the tools and materials you will be using. You will explore imagery as a means of self-discovery, and then begin planning, selecting images, and building your mandala from the center outward. Mandalas are created in stages, through a balance of flowing intuition and supportive structure. You will pause between stages to consider next choices, and the instructor will give individual attention as needed. Your completed mandala will be a point of reference for continuing reflection and meditation. Based in the Pacific Northwest, MJ Connors Davison holds workshops in collage mandalas for both public and private groups. She has taught in Portland, OR and Seattle, WA as well as the San Francisco Bay Area and Santa Fe, NM. Her educational background includes a BFA in Crafts from Kent State University, Kent, Ohio, and an MFA in Book Arts and Printmaking from The University of the Arts in Philadelphia, PA. She continues her education through ongoing studies with other professional artists. MJ’s mixed media artworks are widely collected, most notably at SFMOMA, MoMA in New York City, The Smithsonian Libraries in Washington DC, and The Victoria and Albert Museum in London. Other collectors include Art Centers, Colleges and Universities in the US and Canada, and numerous private patrons.
