Have You Ever Said of a Painting “My 5-Year-Old Could Do That”? Well, Time to Find Out!

This course welcomes, not only artists and art lovers, but all curious participants to the world of abstraction.

Through this two-day course, you will practice letting go of expectations and creating with the abandon and joy of a child. With an attitude of “WHAT IF,” we will use acrylic paint and markers on large sheets of mixed media paper. Julia will guide you through the process of making multiple “starts” and then adding many layers and texture to these starts until the pieces are resolved. She promises on her pinky ring it will be fun

Along the way, we will touch on the principles of mark making, composition, value, texture and color, the same principles behind any style of art.

Prepare yourself for fun, play and self discovery!
