Contemporary Abstract Painting
Hudson River Valley Art Workshops
July 14th-20th, 2024
For many years, I have always leaned towards a palette of bright, bold, expressive colors in my paintings, but I also craved using a neutral palette for a sense of calmness or serenity. I just didn’t know how to move from the saturated to the unsaturated until I discovered a few key secrets to compositional success using a limited palette. Students will be led through several days of exploration of abstract painting on paper, canvas, and wood.
Over the course of the workshop, students will study:
• Design principles and how to apply their knowledge to the work they are creating.
• Color mixing in a neutral palette
• Explore minimalist painting vs. multi-layered mixed media work.
• Experiment with shapes and unusual line work to create interest in one’s art.
• Playful daily exercises and prompts to start brainstorming ideas and activities to invite exploration of one’s art journey.
• Using nature to guide us in our hues.
• How to bring back in color and let it shine through working with some key concepts of design.
