Tuesdays, September 15,  22, 29 and October 6, 13, and 20 from 6:00 P.M. to 8:00 P.M.

Every session starts with a meditation journey to emerge in our creative mind. This workshop series invites participants to engage with a variety of materials through guided, hands-on exercises.

The series is designed to encourage intuitive making, helping participants relax into the creative process without pressure or expectation. Through mindful exploration of texture, form, and composition, participants develop a deeper connection to their artistic voice. The focus is on process over outcome, creating a supportive space for experimentation, presence, and personal expression.

Drawing: Practice fast figure sketching and contour drawing from live model and still life. Using pencil, pen, and brush, participants build confidence in observation, gesture, and expressive line.

Painting: Explore color through intuitive brushwork. Exercises focus on loosening control, developing sensitivity to color relationships, and allowing spontaneous expression to guide the process.

Collage: Transform found materials, photographs, and text into layered, abstract narratives. Participants experiment with composition, fragmentation, and storytelling through juxtaposition.

Mixed Media: Combine drawing, painting, and collage to create dynamic, multimedia works. Incorporate unconventional materials such as fabric, paper, and metallic elements to expand texture and depth.

Monoprinting: Using acrylic paint on glass plates, participants will create expressive prints in both black & white and color. Drawing inspiration from abstract expressionist artists, the process encourages accessing the subconscious and embracing spontaneity.

Assemblage: Take abstraction into three dimensions by assembling found objects, materials, and personal artifacts. Create sculptural compositions that tell a story or evoke emotion.
