Join this exciting workshop to explore ways to create unique and personal paintings that span the continuum from semi-realistic to abstract. This workshop is for painters at all levels of experience. It offers information, demos, and practice (with individual support) in using a variety of techniques, tools and methods for applying paint and other media. In this class you will play around with:

    • Creative ways of applying and removing paint, including the use of stencils and handmade stamps
    • Using a variety of other media
    • Discovering ways to create interesting pattern and texture
    • Creating and incorporating collage papers
    • Making the most of color and value
    • Digging deeply and playfully as you express yourself

You will learn a variety of ways to start, make changes to, and finish paintings in this enjoyable and supportive environment. We’ll explore ways to interact with the painting as it develops to bring out form and to express yourself. You’ll have a chance to try new things and experiment with new ways of approaching the painting process, with an eye to developing your own voice and personal expression.
