LAYERS, COLORS & VOICES workshop Sept. 27, 28 & 29

Sep 27, 28 & 29, 2019
Plano, TX

What is it?

A 3-day workshop on abstract painting, that will explore techniques, tools and practices to engage with acrylic paint, ink and other mixed media.
Abstract painting can be intimidating and many talented artists consciously avoid trying their hands in it. The aim of the workshop is to have the participants learn fresh, or get more comfortable with advanced abstract painting techniques to help them find their own voices and personal painting styles.
The workshop will be held in Plano, TX and studio address will be shared on booking confirmation.

What will it include?

Day 1: will focus on tools, medium & substrates, restricted & unrestricted color palettes, intuitive & planned compositions with a few case studies and practical exercises.
Day 2: will focus on intermediary/advanced techniques in mixed media, complex compositions, quick & easy monoprinting, texture creation and working with layers.
Day 3: will be a hands-on paint session implementing the lessons learned.
Each session will be 3-hours long from 4 to 7 PM.
Most of the tools and resources will be provided. However, a list of recommendations will be shared on sign-up, if any artist wishes to carry their own, or any specialty tools and materials.
