In this workshop, you will be creating a mixed media piece on paper Attendees will be looking at a variety of landscapes images that the instructor will provide. The next step will be choosing one image that resonates with them to focus on for a few minutes. While focusing on that selected image, the instructor will point out things to observe in the image like the composition, the negative space, color, shapes, etc. We will then put the image away and create the landscape from memory! This exercise will encourage you to become more confident painting abstractly and letting creativity flow, becoming mystical in the process.
