ABSTRACT: MAKING THE INVISIBLE VISIBLE

For all levels, this 5-day summer school course will explore how to/why make an image that does not directly reference the visible object.

This class will help you negotiate the uncertain territory of abstract painting; through colour theory, mark-making, arbitrary criteria, mind wandering and more!

Teaching/learning will be conducted with humour, insight, and individual attention to developing your own way of making an image.

Some materials will be provided, but please bring:

• pen and notebook

• paints (preferably acrylic or watercolour)

• and/or coloured drawing material

• brushes

• painting surfaces (paper, board, or canvas)

• three small random objects
