Practical demonstrations, group critiques, and studying how painters articulate domestic environments with colour and pattern will add to participants understanding of the possibilities of contemporary painting as they work on individual projects. MFA Instructor Alistair Magee will provide inspiration and plenty of support as students explore this subject as well as the work of artists who focus on figures in interior spaces to evoke meaning. Looking at painters such as Pierre Bonnard, R.B. Kitaj, and Njideka Akunyili Crosby, participants will learn to employ various compositional and design strategies as well as mixed media techniques used by many artists.
