Acrylic Painting 2 – Approaches to Abstraction

Class Description:
Ever wondered what all those abstract painters are up to? This Level 2 course introduces students to the expressive and experiential nature of abstract painting. Students will develop an understanding of abstract form through a series of projects that emphasize the meaning of colour, gesture, form, process, and compositional design.

Each week we will focus on a specific approach to creating abstract paintings. Presentations on artists working in these approaches will provide context and cultivate curiosity towards how to approach your own paintings.
