Spring Workshops (Time to Bloom!!!)

I think spring came early this year and wowwajumba so with all my upcoming workshops! 

For those in the Abstract realm, I will be teaching "Abstraction Without Fear" at the Visual Arts Centre of Clarington every Wednesday (11-2p.m.) for the whole month of April!!  This workshop focuses to different techniques and methods on how to start an abstract painting.  Discover different acrylic mediums that can change the volume and flow of your acrylic paints.  This course are for those who want to create paintings based on 'intuition' and artistic freedom! http://www.vac.ca/

"Beyond Abstraction" a new abstract workshop I developed will be at Currys Art Store in Whitby.  This abstract workshop (April 28-29) will start by exploring different ways of abstracting a landscape. Students will be working from their own photo as a reference material. Students will deconstruct, exaggerate, crop and edit injecting some humour and personality then reconstructing it again into a finished masterpiece!  No software required, just pure imagination!!!  On day two, students will be able to work on another photograph and choose which technique they liked best from the day before!  You can register by calling Currys at 905-728-2868!

For those who like BIG and Bold flowers!  Bold Floral is back at Curry's Art Store on April 14-15.  Learn to paint flowers up close and personal... feel their energy, their strength as you capture their beauty.  This acrylic class are for those who have already taken a beginner's acrylic class. 


I am back with Meta4 Contemporary Art Gallery in Port Perry, from April 24-May 29!  Every Tuesday from 12:30 - 3p.m., I am teaching "Vibrant Acrylic Painting"! This is for Beginners to Intermediate painters who want to continue learning different painting techniques, from underpainting, to glazing, perspective and composition!  It is a comprehensive course which will get you on your way to creating vibrant paintings!! http://www.meta4gallery.ca/

Last but not least, I am back with the Pickering Recreation Centre for their Beginners Acrylic class on their Spring leisure guide.  Registration begins March 19th.  https://onreg.city.pickering.on.ca/econnect/Start/Start.asp


I am excited to see you in any of my workshops to start painting!!


Cheers,
Marissa
