Expressive Abstract Painting Workshop
In this one-day painting workshop, you will learn approaches for creating expressive abstract paintings using acrylic paint and mark making tools. Through exercises on high quality mixed media paper and GOLDEN acrylic paints, you will be introduced to concepts of composition, color, value and shape as it relates to abstract painting. You will learn how to use acrylic paints and other tools but, most of all, you will be encouraged to trust your instincts and tame the inner critic.
This is a terrific workshop if you are new to abstract painting, new to acrylics or just want to hone your skills and nurture your art practice. Mostly, you will learn how to loosen up and enjoy painting from a place of intuition and expression.
You will be painting in Heather’s studio at Whiting Mills, a beautiful and comfortable space.
