An Invitation To The

When you want to paint, where do you begin? We invite the muses! We invite a retreat from the outer world and all of its demands and begin to spend time with the inner landscape of dreams, imagination and secret worlds. For these three days, we will act as if the painting has as much to say about what it will become as we do.

What are the possibilities of your painting when it is an exchange rather than something you force into shape? This way of working evokes question and involves the kind of listening and seeing that is not habitual.

In this class we will explore these questions and possibilities through color, texture, and text using acrylic paint, mediums, pastel, brushes, found objects, poetry and paper. Each student will create a handmade book.
