All Levels WelcomeLocation:
373 Tequesta Drive - Studio CInstructor:
Great paintings throughout history have embodied the powerful use of color and shape to communicate memorable images. Our focus will be to find new ways of using color and organizing shapes to create more pictorially interesting paintings. We will explore the use of color as light in the painting, along with color organization and color as an expression of the individual painter. The structure in a painting will be of major interest as to how we can use shape to build the space we are observing in the natural world. Master artworks will be studied directly to deepen our understanding of the elements utilized in great paintings and the ways in which we can incorporate some of these possibilities in our own paintings.
