Learn Abstract Painting

This is a ClassBento virtual Live/Box class! From the comfort of your home, share an artisan experience with your friends, family or colleagues, or enjoy with like-minded others. Our Live/Box classes have been featured on The Guardian, TimeOut, Broadsheet, Concrete Playground, Sydney Morning Herald, The Age, Vogue, and more. Here's how it works:

1. Book or Request your preferred time
2. We'll deliver a ClassBento Box to you - this is a physical DIY craft kit containing the materials you'll need. Shipping is free, and it should arrive within 2 business days. We ship nationwide.
3. Enjoy the online class. After booking, you'll receive a link to a Zoom meeting. At the time of the class, use that link to join. During the class, you can easily ask questions and get immediate responses. Zoom is free and easy to use, on any device. You're in control of your privacy - you can mute yourself and hide your webcam if and when you prefer.

Starting with a simple meditation to bring you back to the essence of who you are, this live online abstract painting class will provide you with the opportunity to open to your natural energy and create your own abstract works.

During the online class, you will learn painting techniques to help you on your way - washes, layers, application with different tools, and fast and slow methods of abstract painting.

It is a relaxed and fun class where there are no rules. Just enjoy opening to your natural self, to create and be with one another from this space - it will do wonders for your mental health.

If you're looking for creative things to do at home, then abstract painting is the perfect way to set you on a new artistic journey!
