Course Description

Join Cherie Wilson on an exploration into the practice of abstract art.

My hope is, that as we complete the class that each of us will have really engaged with the vibrant creativity within us, and seized opportunities for personal growth and even a fresh perspective on not only our art, but life itself.

Let me just say, because all of us need to hear this from time to time… You are not wasting time, money, or energy in making art, but allowing your own mental, physical and spiritual self to grow and learn and make connections that words simply cannot. I want to share my own valuable process of finding an inner place of healing and peace through the creative process of abstract art.

In this class, we will gently move through several warm ups and a little introspection. Next, with some simple values with black and white practice, we will move into the exciting world of color. We will create two paper works for practice and demonstration and finally an abstract painting on canvas and use all we have learned in class. Please choose a canvas no smaller than 24″ X 24″ and I hope even larger! After that, a surprise or two at the end that I think will help you along on your beautiful life and explorative art journey. It’s my absolute honor and privilege to be on this creative path with you my friends! Let’s get started. -Cherie
