WORKSHOP DESCRIPTION (from the instructor)
=================
We will explore the process of abstraction by observing from life, such as still life and landscapes. We will discuss how the basic fundamentals of art are important and elevate abstract painting. By identifying inspiration and intention we will build abstraction up from a representational foundation, working towards layers of intuitive applications. We will learn to play and make discoveries that are unique to you. You will learn to identify and solve problems so that you can make appropriate changes. As a creative, my goal for you is to embrace curiosity and freedom and find joy in the process of creating. The more we create, the more creative we become.
ABOUT THE INSTRUCTOR
=================
Marissa Vogl is best known for her large-scale abstractions. Born and raised in Montana, she now resides and paints in Charleston, SC. Vogl’s work is a response to her observations of life’s beauty, most often relating to florals and landscapes. The emotional and energetic response leads to intentional mark-making and exploration of vivid color palettes that create a spontaneous harmony.
She works mostly in oils or acrylics and often begins by painting from life or plein-air references. Her intent is to translate an emotional reaction from her observations into something the viewer can also experience.
