Taught by Michele Cassou, with Cherie Ray, Anna Billings, Gwinn Alderson
It is rare for most people to use painting for its qualities of inner adventure and self-discovery, to paint purely for the process of exploration, not for the result.
The purpose of this workshop is to provide a setting to explore the self through painting, to discover in form and color a powerful tool for uncovering and dissolving blocks to emotional and spiritual expression.
Participants will be given the support and stimulation to develop a natural way of painting based directly upon feeling. The work takes place in an authentic studio setting with large white surfaces to confront the creative void, along with a rich spectrum of colors and brushes.
No prior experience is necessary. Paints, paper, and brushes supplied. Please bring a smock.
Class starts Friday after dinner, ends the following Saturday, after lunch.
