SCAN Workshop with Roberta Shea
Fearless Expressive Painting
One of the greatest obstacles artists have is fear of making a mistake. Together in this spring workshop we will explore the fundamentals of abstract painting without the fear. Using plants you will be guided through informational drawing exercises that explore the basics of value, color, line, shape and composition while making concrete intuitive decisions. Through liberating exercises in mark-making, and layering, you will discover the peace and confidence of finding your own creative expression. You will learn to trust the process and become engaged in the act of painting as a way to express your feelings at that moment about the plant. Bring canvases or canvas boards and your paints and brushes.
