Description
We're sorry, but this class is over. The last meeting was Thursday, December 12, 2024.
Art from the Heart: Abstract Paintingw/Sandi Neiman LovitzAn eleven (11) session courseNo class 10/3 and 11/28Painting is about expression. Life offers so many challenges and having a place to learn how to release all those feelings with smiles is "worth its weight in gold”. Free your creative juices no matter how little or how much experience you have because there are always endless possibilities to discover. You just have to let go. Whether you paint abstract, figure, or still life, you can add expression to your art by starting using colors you were afraid to use, making silly marks, and doing things with the innocence of a child. No wrongs or rights, just having fun and letting go. If you want to learn how to express your inner thoughts and sharpen your skills at the same time, this is a great class for you. We will talk about composition, acrylic techniques, space, and rhythm while having a really good time doing it.
