About this Event
OVERVIEW
This is the 4th workshop in the series where guided by ink painter and art coach, Elena Shkvarkina, participants will learn how to depict feelings in abstract form.
ABOUT THE PROGRAMME
Taking humans as a subject, the program focuses on both physical and subconscious aspects of what makes us who we are. Covering topics of Body, Face, Memory and Feelings, each workshop is built to gradually depart from the figurative depiction and develop skills in an abstract interpretation of humans in ink medium.
Elena Shkvarkina's signature experimental techniques, Palimpsest Ink Painting (the art of superimposed ink layers) and Particle Ink (unique modified formula of ink) will be introduced and used as a medium.

During the 2,5 hours of Into the Abstract: Feelings in Palimpsest Ink Painting workshop you will:
1. Learn why feelings and empathy are the essence of abstract painting. How to tune into your and other people's feelings and reflect them on paper with the right tone, tint, shade and form.
2. Learn Palimpsest Ink Painting technique
3. Interpret feelings in Palimpsest Ink Painting and Particle Ink techniques in abstract form.
