About this Event
Description:
In this painting workshop, we will explore, through direct experience, ways of
activating the field, the field of the painting, the field of our space, the fields of
thought and and energy within us. We will weave these fields with color, planes,
line, light & touch within our paintings. In addition to water based paint, elements
of collage will be part of our process. The space will include an open plan still life,
and in the afternoon we will be joined by a live model. Personalized individual
and group feedback will integrate discoveries and anchor the day’s experiences
into pathways forward. This workshop can be attended as a single-session or in
tandem with PERCEPTUAL PAINTING: Self-sensory System.
