  • Students are responsible for their own art materials; see below for materials list

This 1-day workshop will appeal to oil and acrylic artists who have some experience with painting and want to loosen up or "break out" of traditional techniques and subject matter. If you want to quiet that 'inner critic' and find your unique, creative voice in your work as well as have fun... then this is for you!

The focus will be on "process", "exploration", and transitioning from representational painting to something more abstract, and authentic. Canadian artist Sue A. Miller will guide you through this transition by offering demonstrations and painting exercises that will be informative and lots of fun.

You will also be exposed to using unconventional tools to explore different effects.

  • Any tools you'd like to experiment with
