Mixed Media: Abstract and Figure-Hybrid Art
About
This class emphasizes the power of inner vision by creating images from within, rather than simply copying nature. While we will begin by studying and imitating existing forms, the focus will shift toward transforming those observations into original, expressive creations. The main goal of this course is for students to discover their own unique visual style. By exploring Surrealist, Cubist, and imitating ancient artistic influences, students will experience the joy of creative transformation within oneself. Students will first learn the principles of abstract geometric composition, then move toward combining figurative or organic elements with abstraction. The aim is to develop an individual artistic flavor, a step toward personal originality. Hands-on support will be provided throughout. No prior experience is necessary. Please bring supplies to class. Materials list available at sharonartstudio.org.
