SEEING DIFFERENTLY THROUGH Abstract
Through a series of guided exercises, you will develop core skills in composition, colour mixing, and visual interpretation. You will explore shape, repetition and mood using paint, observation and photographic imagery as starting points.
Each session includes artist references, demonstrations, and plenty of time to create your own work, with individual feedback and group discussion to support your learning.
This is a fun, hands-on class designed to build confidence and encourage experimentation. Whether you are developing your style or picking up a brush for the first time, you will gain tools and inspiration to continue exploring abstraction beyond the studio.
