All of us at one time or another have heard the expression or have been told to “loosen up” when art creating. Well, we are going to “loosen up” using a structured gridded pattern on a solid wood substrate. Each us will map out our own unique pattern on a prepared textural surface and begin playing and exploring using found object elements, paint, paper and wax, creating a complex yet whimsical piece of art. You will go home with a beautiful work of art and a broad array of techniques that can be adapted to many art applications in this technique/project class. We will learn painting techniques that I use to create my own unique mixed media pieces. Bring your hammer…
