I love abstract faces. It always amazes me how lines and colors can make us feel, especially in the human face. Join me for The Painted Face, where we will deconstruct facial features and reimagine them through bold colors, exaggerated shapes, and intuitive brushwork. We'll start with the rules and then break the rules for artistic license and play.
Instructor will Provide:
handout
stencils for sharing
collage fodder for sharing
Supplies Needed to Bring to Class:
Your art journal
9x12 Watercolor or mixed media paper pad, student grade is fine (I like Cason XL). We need lots of paper to play on!

Spray bottle with water
Paint brushes
Wipes/paper towels/water container to wash brushes
Gel medium
Your favorite stencils.
