Abstract Landscapes
Learn some basics about how to create fun land, sea, and skyscapes! Cloud formations, mountain ranges, forests and ocean views, your abstract vistas have never been so beautiful!
You’ll get instruction on how to build a successful composition, including foreground, midground and background composition tips, some tried and true color theory and paint blending basics, and paint applications.
These are fun little creations, and will allow you to practice your skill on mini canvases or papers, which aren't as intimidating as a large scale commitment piece can be!
Create your own, while quieting your mind. Make them detailed or completely abstracted, and I’m there to coax you along, give you color mixing and compositional advice, some hands on assistance, and show you examples that will inspire your work.
Painting Abstracts doesn’t require any special practice or prior experience, and the benefits of letting your mind create in this way are bountiful. Abstract art challenges our brains to create our own interpretations, thereby stimulating the higher-level areas of the brain responsible for creativity and imagination.
Specifically, it can-
- teach us to look at art—and, in a sense, at the world—in a new way.
- free our brain from the dominance of reality, to create imaginative and creative responses to everyday problems.
- allow you to achieve ‘flow’, that elusive meditative state that reduces stress, and temporarily pushes aside all of your worries!
All materials included!
This class is BYOB, and drinking, (or eating, if you’d like to bring snacks), are always options!
I am dedicated to offering stress free, stress reducing art classes that are fun, no matter what your art experience may be!
*As with all Ruthi Makes classes, no previous experience in art or special talents are necessary!*
