Description
In this innovative and creative course, students will explore various aspects of ‘experiential learning’ through an abstract lens with support and guidance of veteran artist and coach Catherine Shea. Students will discover new ways to learn about colour, form, pattern and texture in easy to follow steps designed for all levels of experience, painting from the comfort of their own home studios. Catherine creates a non-judgmental nurturing environment sharing her stories and experiences for students to position themselves in an artistic space.
Beginning each class with a short centering exercise, students will embark on learning exciting techniques, using unconventional tools to paint abstract themes. Students will be emailed an ‘image for inspiration’ each week and are encouraged to share their creative experiences with our group. Under the guidance of Catherine’s art coaching and facilitation, classes are designed to be an enjoyable fulfilling experience resulting in great creative successes for students – even those who have never painted, or think they cannot paint. Join Catherine’s growing international creative community!
*No previous painting experience required. Beginners welcome.
*all students will receive a free ‘Catherine’s Favourites’ painter’s guide sheet
