This month, Catherine will introduce 4 different methods of creating abstract paintings, introducing various techniques and styles, using acrylic paints. This course will focus on colour, shapes, material, and self-expression through art making.
September 4th: Abstract Hard-Edge Painting
Create a complete hard-edge abstract painting! Abstract hard-edge painting is a composition of solid shapes, absent of recognizable objects. These art pieces are often an expression of passion and emotion, achieved through carefully chosen colours and shapes.
September 11th: Recycled Abstract Paintings
Catherine will demonstrate the step-by-step process of creating this colourful, 3-dimensional technique of abstract painting. Not only is this method interesting and fun, but it is a way to make use of and breathe new life into objects that no longer serve purpose!
September 18th: Stain Painting Collages
Catherine will demonstrate the step-by-step process of creating this colourful, 3-dimensional technique of abstract painting. Not only is this method interesting and fun, but it is a way to make use of and breathe new life into objects that no longer serve purpose!
September 25th: Abstract Textile Collages
Stained textile abstract collage is a composition created with various textures, thicknesses, and colours of textiles, assorted into a collage. Learn fun techniques to create an interesting composition, using nylon, fish-net, yarn, and beads.
