Concepts of Abstract Workshop: Composition and Color

Instructor Samantha Spalti
Saturday, May 4 & Sunday, May 5, 10 a.m. – 2 p.m.
$95 | nonrefundable

This is a stand-alone workshop but does continue the exploration begun in the first Concepts in Abstract workshop. We will be discussing different kinds of compositions (ratios, symmetry/asymmetry, pos/neg space, rule of thirds, etc) and color palettes (monochromatic/analogous/complementary, triad, Zorn, etc). In addition, we will talking about how to brainstorm ideas.

Saturday – exploration through dialogue, there will be a few handouts so you can take these ideas home with you. We will begin fleshing out ideas and start painting.

Sunday – exploration will include putting paint to canvas – do not expect to walk away with a finished piece.

Bring your own supplies – paint, brushes, canvas, or paper – whatever you prefer to work on. We will supply water, paper towels, tabletop easels (if wanted), and inspiration.
