    Color Theory for Painters

    SCOTT GELLATLY
    Three-day workshop
    Friday, July 17, Saturday, July 18, and Sunday, July 19
    10 AM - 4 PM
     

    Bring “informed intuition” to color-mixing and color strategies for all genres of painting. In this course, we will explore how to use the key characteristics of color to express emotion in our paintings. Each student will create a series of exercises and example paintings that culminate in their own hand-painted, color reference book. This class is intended for painters of all levels and genres.

     

    Scott will give frequent presentations and demonstrations throughout the workshop, each followed by studio time for each student to work on the specific color strategy. This workshop is rich in content - students are sure to leave with a greater appreciation of how color functions in their paintings.

    Automatic Drawing and Collage

    V. MALDONADO
    One-day workshop
    Saturday, July 25
    10 AM - 4 PM 

     

    This one day (six hour) workshop invites participants at all levels to unlock their subconscious and bypass creative blocks through automatic drawing and intuitive collage techniques.

     

    We utilize spontaneous mark-making, tearing, rearranging materials to create new context and abstract compositions. 

     

    It is a meditative, expressive process focusing on flow and emotional release, and thinking with your hands to experiment and refine techniques.

    Abstraction: A Process-Oriented Approach

    V. MALDONADO
    Two-day workshop
    Saturday, August 8 - Sunday, August 9
    10 AM - 4 PM
     

    This intermediate-to-advanced painting workshop focuses on developing an abstract language through the exploration of various water-based painting methods. While some students may be looking to shift into abstraction from a representational practice, other participants who have experience creating abstract paintings are encouraged to bring deeper focus and consistency to their imagery and approach. Prompts are provided to foster new ways to develop mark, surface, expression and meaningful color choices.
