Painting Art Class at GAC

Let's take our inspiration from the dramatically evolving world around us to push our painting towards more dynamic expression.  Come to the first class with an image you are interested in taking to the next level, whether abstract or guided by real or imagined landscapes. Shoreline images can become crashing rocks a walk at dusk can lead onto a mysterious path, peaceful marsh scenes can become radiant sunsets, a tree on a hill could become a windswept moor. Take a simple image and transform it, allowing distortions, dramatic evolution of palette, more expressive brush strokes, paint application and size of the image to create a bigger, bolder picture. Prior painting experience is strongly recommended. Students will work independently with supportive individual and group critiques if desired, plus occasional discussions about art history. Please note: no class 11/7
