Abstract Painting

Saturdays 1-4pm; $90 per person
Herron Studio, 5545 Skyline Road
If you have past experience with painting and would like to develop an abstract approach to the landscape, please join us. We will explore the elements of art as they apply to the language of painting. “How can I capture the feeling of what I saw?” How can we bridge the distance between the scene itself and our interpretation of it? Come prepared to discuss, write, and paint. Four paintings will be completed. Weekly critiques will help give you constructive feedback and encouragement. Supply list; oils, acrylics or watercolors.
