About this Event
Discover the liberating world of abstract art in this hands-on workshop designed for artists of all levels who are ready to move beyond literal representation and explore pure color, form, and emotion.
In this two-hour immersive session, you'll learn to let go of the need to depict recognizable subjects and instead create compelling compositions through intuitive mark-making, bold color choices, and dynamic shapes. We'll explore the fundamental principles that make abstract art work—including balance, movement, tension, and visual rhythm—while drawing inspiration from pioneers like Kandinsky, Rothko, and Joan Mitchell.
The workshop begins with a brief overview of abstract art history and key concepts, followed by guided exercises that will help you break through creative blocks and silence your inner critic. You'll experiment with various techniques including gestural painting, color field exploration, and layering, using acrylic paints and mixed media materials.
Whether you're a beginner curious about abstract expression or an experienced artist looking to push beyond your comfort zone, you'll leave with newfound confidence, at least one completed abstract piece, and practical tools for continued exploration. All materials provided.
