Make your mark! Abstract expressive painting…..find what marks are unique to you and only you!

“Line can evoke an emotional response second to none…..the key element is variety..”….Jenny Nelson

Students will be encouraged by a series of studies/exercises to open up to mark making in a intuitive way. We each have a unique way a mark is applied either by way of writing or painting that helps us to communicate and express shapes, light, form, volume and feeling. Learn to stretch the properties of the mediums you will be using. Expressive mark making creates a flow and rhythm that offers a variety and interest to a piece. Marks are the alphabet with which a drawing is made. Mark making is the manifestation of a gestural energy! Lets discover your energy and create some great art!

Students will create works on paper and canvas.

Students will be instructed on the skill of using the economy method of painting by limiting the brushstrokes in a painting. ( 50-40) The key is two things….use a small canvas 6x6 size and a large brush!! Students will have multiple exercises in using big brushes and mark making, limiting their color palette to only 4 colors and painting from life (small little fresh flower arrangements will be provided for students to paint from) . This is a great way to practice the intentions behind brushstrokes while also giving attention to line, shape, value and color….bringing a stronger piece of art to life. If you struggle with over working your paintings to the point of mud or are one that wants to loosen up and free yourself from the ideas of perfection then this is your class!!
