7 | Look Both Ways: The Interconnection Between Representation and Abstraction - Focus on Materials Techniques (Online, via Zoom)

Explore subject matter and various materials in a new way! Learn innovative techniques for combining paint and pastel, painting with watercolors, and new substrates. Whether you are drawn to realism or abstraction, this class will demonstrate the interconnection between both. A special focus on new women artists will inspire fresh ways to experiment with the expressive qualities of line, form, color and light, and texture. Work in the medium of your choice (acrylic, oil, watercolor, pastel, fabric, or drawing mediums). This class will include group and individual critiques, PowerPoint presentations, and studio time. Demonstrations will be based on students' interests.
