Introduction to Large-scale Abstract Painting, Saturday 8/09, 5-8PM with local artist Kevin Andrew.
Do you love the idea of experimenting with large-scale painting, but maybe not sure how to begin? Or a little intimidated by the idea? In this class, you’ll be invited to give yourself a little freedom to play on a large scale, letting go of any notions of perfection.
You’ll be using a real flower bouquet as a starting point for your creation, as well as acrylic paints and texture tools throughout the class.
A brief meditation and intention conversation will be offered at the start of the class, to begin the experience. Throughout the class, Kevin will paint while demonstrating various techniques, color palette considerations, and composition thoughts.
This abstract painting class will be all about painting BIG! Bigger tools, compositions, and techniques will be at your disposal. We will use acrylic paint, texture paste, scrapers, palette knives, squeegees, wetting medium, markers, and good old brushes. Creating will be quick and intuitive, without over-thinking.
Students will be given a 36” x 48” canvas to work on during the class and take home.
Creating a finished masterpiece is not a requirement! But getting out of your head and truly expressing something from within is! Come play, learn and challenge yourself to paint big!
MATERIALS: Please bring the materials found here with you to the class.
LOCATION: Due to the amount of space that is needed for painting large-scale, this class will be held in the River Arts District: Radical Hotel conference room at 95 Roberts Street.
