About
In this class students will develop a visual language, work in series, hone in on individual styles and personal point of views. Critiques, Demonstrations, and techniques will be given on how to manipulate the properties of paint via color mixing, using mixed medias, and composing dynamic imagery. Beginners to advanced students welcome.
This class is being offered as a collaboration between our Museum School and the Cape Cod Art Center.
You will be sent a zoom link from the Cape Cod Art Center prior to the first class.

Artist Statement: I think that this world and my human experience is a phenomenal and magical happening. There are so many unexplainable truths regarding cycles, the spirit, the endless universe, and our humble human existence. In my work I record and research my memories and my imagination to become closer to the interconnectivity of this massive system of life. With paint I transform emotions into color, experiences into shapes, and imagination and spirit into material.
