FIND YOUR FLOW
A Three-Day Immersive Workshop with artist Jenny Grant
We are thrilled to welcome artist Jenny Grant, traveling all the way from her home in Sweden to Asheville’s River Arts District, for this beautiful, soulful mixed media workshop at ArtPlay.
In addition to the workshop, there will be an optional dinner gathering on the evening of Saturday 10/16. Details will be shared as the dates approach.
Please reach out here if you would like a list of nearby hotels or airbnbs. We look forward to hosting you!
Would you like to learn to create soulful mixed media faces? In this workshop Jenny will guide you through her layered mixed media process, step-by-step, from the first marks all the way to a face that feels alive and full of soul. We’ll work with mixed media on both paper and stretched canvas, using paper collage, acrylic paint, mediums and inks to build rich, textured backgrounds. From there, we’ll draw and paint faces in a simple and fun way. Together we’ll work with transparent layers and bring the faces alive through the eyes, where so much of the feeling lives.
Along the way, Jenny will share all her favourite techniques: how to create grunge, how to work with transparent layers, and how to keep the work loose so it stays alive. We’ll soften the inner critic together and practice letting go of perfectionism by embracing the messy middle. This process is tactile, expressive, and a little bit messy. It’s about trusting the process, listening to your own feelings, and watching your work expand as you go. This workshop is suitable for beginners as well as experienced artists.
This Workshop is now SOLD OUT
