ArtyParti - Paint by Chords #2
About this Event
'Paint by Chords'
Picture it. A musican performs a live acoustic set, and you are given a canvas and materials (acrylic, watercolour, oil pastels, markers, brushes, and pallettes).
It's up to you how you respond to the music; let the vibe take over and be inspired as you put brush to canvas.
We'll then share and discuss the stories and influences behind your paintings, which are recorded for an episode of the ArtyParti podcast (and later, mixed into a rich audiophonic listen).
Rinse and repeat; another acoustic set, another canvas, then another discussion.
It'll be a fun and chilled event to enjoy being inspired by music, and to make connections with other artists & creatives in the city.
Paint By Chords is for anyone, regardless of experience - whether you're an established artist who wants to test out a different environment, or whether you've no art experience and you're looking for a unique way to spend an evening.
You are welcome to bring your own materials if you would prefer; but your ticket costs includes two canvases and various options.
