**NEW** Abstracting Nature with Jacqueline Scotcher
Introduction:
Using acrylic paint and pastels you will be guided through ways to interpret natural forms into an abstract artwork. We will explore the use of colour, line, pattern and shape in producing a painting. This introductory practical session is designed to inspire and provide techniques that you can extend beyond the class.
This class will guide you through ways to interpret natural forms into interesting abstract paintings. We will combine drawing and painting techniques to build up a playful surface, with a focus on colour combinations and line qualities. You will learn about acrylic materials and paint applications and leave with a painted canvas.
Suitable for beginners or experienced artists seeking fresh inspiration. Could be a fun one-off session to produce an artwork or inspire you to continue with your painting beyond the class if you desire.
