Painting Intuitively

We will approach painting intuitively much like a Jazz musician rifts not knowing exactly how their song will evolve and end. This class will give painters a push to let go of control and use accidents to their benefit. We will experiment working from life, memory and imagination. The process of painting becomes just as important as the final outcome. The more tools the artist has in their tool box the more intuitive the painting can become. We will do technical exercises on using color, composition and paint application and then apply these methods from a more personal and emotional place.

This is an in-person class which will take place in our building with strict social distancing protocols and reduced student capacity. Please see our COVID-19 community safety policies.
