Finding Your Abstract Voicew/Marianne MitchellJanuary 31 & February 110:00 am - 4:00 pm


This workshop focuses on discovering your unique abstract voice. Through a series of small paintings created on the first day, you'll begin to recognize the development of your authentic expression and how it distinguishes you from other artists. These initial works may also reveal insights into how adjusting your approach to using visual language can more powerfully express your abstract voice. The second day features group discussion exploring how artistic inspiration shapes color and composition differently for each artist, followed by individual consultations on integrating the workshop's insights into your personal practice.
For artists with some painting experience and artists with a lot of painting experience.
