Description

In this workshop, you will have an immersive and creative experience exploring the intersection of abstract art and botanical still life.  Rebecca will guide you through various mark-making techniques and will encourage you to experiment with lines, shapes, and textures inspired by natural botanical forms. What will I be learning? You will learn new ways of working creatively using an assortment of props and natural elements. From sticks and ink to brushes, tape, and more, you'll discover how to unleash your imagination with a host of tools and materials. Through playful experimentation, you will develop the ability to work with freedom and fluidity, allowing your creativity to flourish. Using the innovative taped-off technique, you'll craft numerous small artworks.
