WORKSHOP DESCRIPTION
Together we will identify and release the fears that form creative blocks thus preventing us from allowing the painting process to happen intuitively and naturally. We will tap in to the unique, innate creative energy and flow that we each one have access to and allow ourselves to paint our stories in our abstract artwork. We will learn various techniques, color schemes, composition, mark-making, layering, texture, glazing and more to create a one-of-a-kind piece of your very own!
