Push Your Painting - Thursday Mornings

An artistic adventure! Challenge your preconceptions about what constitutes painting and how it might be done. Through both set and self-directed exercises, you will be encouraged to be as adventurous as possible in your media combinations, approach and subject matter. Each week will focus on a different artistic idea, movement, or process: Get inspired by 20th century masterworks, then be challenged to explore some of the same ideas for yourself. Regardless of our starting point, you’ll always have plenty of creative leeway to take things in your own direction, make it your own. Group discussion and personal attention will enable you to better understand and develop your artistic voice. At every turn you will be encouraged to hear and trust your own inner compass as we boldly explore new directions. All levels and abilities are welcome: the only prerequisites are an open mind and an adventurous spirit. All water-based media are acceptable, and will be used on their own and in conjunction with drawing materials.

Thursdays 9:30am to 12:30pm

Duration: 7 weeks
