Abstract painting can be expressive and dynamic. We will learn how to transition from the real to the abstract. The structures of abstract forms are all around us. We will use basic compositional strategies to find those structures and forms in still life and the natural world. Abstract painting focuses the creative process in a new and exciting way. Come and experience the challenge and freedom of the abstract artist! See www.spruillarts.org for a list of supplies you will need to bring to class.
