About this event
Using the landscape as a point of reference this class will explore compositional and visual languages that venture into abstraction. Students will develop their own vocabulary of mark making along with the tools of non-representational painting traditions. This class is best suited for those with some previous painting or drawing experience who are excited to investigate the subject matter of the landscape in a new way! Students will make paintings and preparatory drawings from sites both chosen by them as well as the instructor. While this class will focus primarily on the use of painting with oil or acrylic paint, students will be encouraged to work with mixed media as well. The first day of class, participants will meet at the Ann Arbor Art Center. Additional classes will take place at a variety of scenic locations in the local Ann Arbor area that will be discussed at your first class meeting. In the event of inclement weather, students will meet in a studio at the Art Center and the instructor will have a back-up plan for the day's lesson. Please note: The A2AC is not responsible for inclement weather conditions and provides no refunds or pro-ration for classes that need to be held indoors due to poor weather. *There will be no class on July 4th.
