Make It Abstract

DESCRIPTION
Break out of realism into the delight of color and form that is abstraction. Embark on a distillation process, arriving at your own modern art that joyfully expresses the basics of subject and scene. You’ll relax into creating by beginning in a small format, working from a photo or realistic source image. Then you’ll loosen your grip on realism by creating iteratively, playing with composition, shapes, few details and color. Finally, going bigger, you’ll move further into an exploration of essence.

SUPPLY INFORMATION
All required supplies and materials are included with your materials fee.
