In this two day workshop, we’ll create a series of large acrylic paintings that will free your self expression. We work large to allow our bodies to move, and we work quickly and furiously to counteract negative self talk. The instructor will guide you through this exciting experience and fuel you with ideas and techniques to pursue non-representational painting on your own. Registration closes Mar 23.
