Description
In this Mini-Workshop, I will show you one of my favorite ways to create some abstract art! These color studies are perfect for experiment with colors, marks, papers, and so much more.
This class is for you if:
- You love learning new techniques for your art
- You are interested in abstract painting
- You love experimenting with art supplies
- You love watching how others approach their painting practice
Supplies: I encourage you to use your supplies you have on hand to do your projects. You do not have to purchase any specific supplies for this class. It is all about experimenting with the supplies you have and learning to let loose.
- Watercolor paper – I Iike cold press and hot press at least 140lb.
- Ceramic paint palette – I show you 2 in class if you are interested in checking them out – I show you one from Sylvan Clayworks and one from Sugarhouse Ceramic Co. You don’t need one for class – you can use anything for your paints like paint palette paper or paper plates, etc…
- Various paintbrushes and mark making tools
- Various paints in your favorite colors. I’m using a variety of acrylic paints in this class, but feel free to use watercolors, oil paints, inks, etc… the sky is the limit on the supplies you could choose to use and experiment with.
- I’m using some soft pastels in class – pick some out in your favorite colors if you choose to use any at all.
- Various Neocolor II Crayons – I love using these and they are water-soluble.
- Disposable gloves if you are using any toxic art supplies
- I love using a Stabilo black pencil and the Posca Pen to make marks in my work.
- Finishing spray – I show you several I have used to finish my pieces to protect the art.
This is most of the supplies I chose to experiment with in this project… but as I mentioned above – don’t think you need to go out and buy tons of new supplies (unless you just want to…). Try this project with some of the supplies you have on hand and grow from there.
