Going Deeper: A Cold Wax Workshop for Advanced Abstract Painters Full: Workshop with Rebecca Crowell

16 - 24 August 2024 
Open a larger version of the following image in a popup: This workshop goes beyond technique into exploring ways to bring contrast and personal meaning to your abstract work. Focus will be on increasing your skill with the medium and tools, strengthening your understanding of abstraction, and on working with the visual elements and design principles to express your intentions. The course will include a balance of directed activity and independent working time. Along with some specific exercises, there will be presentations about abstraction and other relevant topics plus individual meetings to talk about your work as a whole. You will work on both quick studies and more developed pieces. The goal is that you will leave fired up with new ideas and a better understanding of what you want your work to convey.
