Joan Fullerton-Intuitive Painting and Collage

www.joanfullerton.com

Want more expressive art?

Want more confidence in yourself and about your art?

Want to have a transformative experience with like-minded people?

This class will take you beyond worn-out or predictable painting methods. We will experiment with innovative techniques and a mindset of relaxed awareness, which have been designed to cultivate curiosity and self-confidence.

Inspiring demos, lots of time to paint, and group critiques will reinforce your unique vision. Critiques will model how to discuss paintings with non-judgmental language that educates you to “see” more and to appreciate whatever shows up so that you and your art will flourish.

“Draw, scrape, roll, drag, spray, stamp, lift, write, drip, your way to fascinating non-objective or abstracted representational subjects. Within the random marks and shapes, there is a story unfolding.”

Discussions will address confidence, procrastination, vulnerability, curiosity, courage, inspiration, intuition, metaphor, symbolic elements, competition, belief systems, and more! I’ll help you dismiss that “mean inner critic” for greater productivity and authenticity.

People are more open and creative when they “play.” You may find yourself indulging in irreverent behavior while producing imaginative paintings and much laughter.

All levels of experience are encouraged to attend.
