DESCRIPTION
Do you want to jump back into being creative, but are not quite sure where to begin? In this workshop, you will discover that happy accidents are really about letting go of expectations, inviting experimentation, and enjoying the process over the product.
Through a series of collaborative exercises, artist and educator David Repyak will help you tap into your powers of observation and activate left-brain thinking. He'll encourage a loosening up of artistic style, and show you how to move into a way of creating that is less like work and more like play.

All supplies are provided with the non-refundable materials fee.

His goal as a teaching artist is to design and execute a positive, educational and creative experience, with more attention on process than on product.
