Explore how the wonders of colour can express feelings in a natural way through painting. Participants will explore their artistic side and experiment with colour and painting techniques to then create their own individual abstract canvas to take home.
The facilitator is local abstract artist Mary Lin Litchfield, who will share a little of her own work with you and then facilitate the first experiments with colour, texture, and shape. These experiments will build with feeling to develop the colour palette for the day that is right for you. This will be used as the basis for developing your own individual colourful canvas with its own rhythms and forms. You will be able to take the canvas home ready to hang on the wall.
This is a progressive and enjoyable workshop where you will create artistic results in a relaxed and supportive environment at the beautiful UP Gallery in Sassafras.
Bring layered clothing suited to cooler or hot weather, as the workshop space is on our light-filled enclosed verandah. You can breathe fresh air, hear local birdlife, and enjoy daylight to work in. It is heated and sheltered but we do close space for June and July in the frostier months. Wear comfy enclosed footwear too.
