Abstract Painting
Mon 24 Feb 2025, 12:30 pm - Mon 24 Mar 2025, 3:00 pm
Each lesson begins with an approachable practical experiment that is later developed using various materials such as acrylic paints, watercolours, pen and ink and collage. All will be demonstrated to understand how the materials can be used in each session and constant guidance will be given throughout the course. Contemporary artists are introduced and discussed each week to aid as reference material. This course is ideal for beginners and amateur artists who want to experiment with materials and ideas further.
Please bring overalls, pencil, basics acrylic set, paper palette, palette knife, paper or canvas. Materials will be discussed in the first lesson, so don’t worry about having everything at the first session. Kits are something that you build over time. Every kit is unique to the artist.
