Description
Painting: Intention Painting/Art as Talisman
Instructor: Sheri Lee Robinson
Words hold power, so does art! This class will take you on a magical journey using
your own powerful intentions to create potent, beautiful paintings that can have a lasting beneficial impact for yourself and those around you for years to come. What are your intentions and desires? What do you want? We will start this course by exploring our intentions through discussion and some quick journaling, then we will write our intentions directly onto the canvas surface, letting them “sink in” before we paint over them. The words will eventually be entirely covered with paint but their power will be very much alive in the finished piece. The final piece can act as a wonderful talisman or charm and your art will have added meaning, beyond just being a fantastic painting! In this course you will have complete freedom of expression when it comes to what you want to paint on top of your intentions. I love abstract art and find it works well for my own Intention Paintings, but if you want to do a landscape or seascape or a portrait, go for it! I can guide and instruct through all styles but ask you to really trust your gut when it comes to applying the paint. We can use our hands, brushes or palette knives to work the materials and have some fun in the process. In fact, having fun is a requirement! This class is open to all and there are no prerequisite courses needed to participate. I look forward to meeting you all and teaching you this fantastic way of creating art. Art helps, art heals, art is important. See you soon!There is a materials list for this class.
