Step out of your comfort zone and explore new ways of expressing yourself without any ties to artistic traditions. In this one-day workshop, students will discover art techniques, ideas, tools, and inspiration to dive into the world of abstract art. The class will combine abstract and realistic elements to create a painting that is complex, dynamic, and interesting. Students will work on translating thoughts, emotions, and ideas to the canvas using texture, form, and color. This program is intended to inspire you to create art that is engaging at a visceral level and makes people feel and/or think. A basic understanding of painting is recommended. *This workshop is open to either oils or acrylics and is designed to cater to a range of levels.
