Explore a variety of mixed-media approaches to art!
In this course, participants will explore a variety of mixed-media approaches to art! Mixed media can unlock a variety of textures, styles, and imaginative avenues. We will discuss the combination of materials that complement one another and how to achieve successful compositions through a range of media. We will learn from artists who have mixed-media practices, as well as create compositions of our own. Students will have the opportunity to work from reference imagery as well more abstractly. Participants of all skill levels are invited to join this course. Students are welcome to bring in any supplies they would like to experiment with, aside from toxic or disruptive substances (such as oil paints, spray paints, etc.). Supplies are limited.
About the Instructor:
Lindsay is an artist fascinated by the layered relationships humans have with outdoor spaces, especially those shaped by American tendencies to romanticize nature. She typically creates paintings inspired by local fragments of landscape, often incorporating sculptural elements in her process. Originally from Bucks County, Pennsylvania, she now lives and works in Arlington, Virginia. Mueller holds a BFA in Painting and a BA in Psychology from Boston University and an MFA in Visual Arts from American University. She has exhibited across the East Coast at venues including the University of Mary Washington, Adah Rose Gallery, the Peale Museum, and Chautauqua Institution. In 2023 she received the Bethesda Painting Young Artist Award, and she was a 2025 Sondheim Art Prize semifinalist. She is currently an artist-in-residence at MoCA Arlington.
