INTUITIVE PAINTING 

Saturday, September 24, 10-2 at ArtPlay Studio in Asheville, NC

Intuitive painting was instrumental in helping me overcome some pretty serious creative blocks! This class is designed to give you a quick taste of creating without judgment. We’ll keep the supplies simple – paper, tempera paint, and a brush – in order to give your own intuitive creative voice a chance to sing out. There will be no critiques, no commenting on each other’s work, no comparing – just a chance to make and play. Visit the ArtPlay website for more information and to register.

 Wednesday, October 12 - Thursday, October 13, 2022, 10-5pm each day at 310 Art in Asheville, NC

Only a Few Spots Left! $365 includes all materials

This 2-day class is the perfect introduction to working with molten wax. We'll cover safety, materials, building layers, collage, basic image transfer, color mixing, building texture, and even learn to incorporate encaustic-friendly mixed media like oil sticks and pan pastels. It's also a great refresher if you haven't done encaustic in a while, and can help you refine techniques and troubleshoot if you've been learning on your own. I only take 5 students in each session of this class so that each student gets individual attention. Visit the 310 Art website for more information and to register.
