Introduction to Abstract Painting

This class will explore acrylic painting with a focus on abstraction. Students will experiment with acrylic paint as a material through demonstrations on color mixing, paint handling, mark making, collage, and composition. Using photographs as a starting point for the paintings, students will be asked to transform the image through invented imagery and abstraction. Students will develop a number of paintings that will help to improve their painting skills and encourage them to take risks as painters.
