The Museum School at the Cape Cod Museum of Art presents:
Figurative Expression and You Part Two: A Breakthrough Workshop in Claiming Your Artistic Voice with Laura Shabott
2-Day Workshop, Saturday, November 16, and Sunday, November 17, from 10:00-3:00 pm each day.
Member $165 / Non-Member $180.
In this course designed by artist/teacher Laura Shabott, you will learn to make figurative expressive drawings, paintings, and collages. Each day begins with a lecture/discussion about the Figurative Expressionists who studied with Hans Hofmann: Jan Mueller, Robert Henry, Selina Trieff, and others. Then, the class moves to the easel/table when the model arrives. Guided prompts will ground each artist in Hofmann’s theory of push/pull and how shape, form, color, and composition work on a two-dimensional surface.
We begin with gesture drawings and move on to collage and/or painting each day. Insightful, affirming critiques in this process-based course are designed to strengthen each artists’ voice and ability to make paintings that are accomplished and exciting. People of all levels of experience are welcome. See materials list below.
American artist Laura Shabott makes paintings, drawings and collage that respond to the human form with boldness, strength, and originality. She is a graduate of the School of the Museum of Fine Arts at Tufts. Represented by Berta Walker Gallery, her art is in the permanent collection of PAAM, Provincetown. She is a 2023 recipient of the inaugural AFCC Creative Exchange Capacity Building Grant in partnership with MassMOCA's Assets4Artists. www.laurashabott.com
