In this class, we’ll be focusing on how to create an abstract painting using mixed media.

Painting an abstract composition is a very liberating and inspiring experience and when you combine it with using a variety of different paints, pastels, inks and pens it gets even more exciting.

We will start with looking at what abstract art is before moving on to do lots of exercises with mediums, techniques and colour

The class will cover:

    • What materials you can use
    • What is abstract art
    • How to make a colour plan
    • Different techniques to combine your various mediums
    • How I split my mediums into 3 categories so they are easier to use.
    • Experiments with various resist mediums and tools
    • Two different approaches to making an abstract painting

I’ll show you how I instigate lots of different techniques and tools to get interesting marks and reactions with the various mediums I use. Through out the class, there will be exercise, top tips and recaps to keep you involved and on track to create your class project.

This class is for you if you’ve:

    • Always wanted to try mixed media but have been nervous about how to approach it

    • Tried both of the above, but got a bit lost with how to develop your creative project

    • A much better understanding or how to combine different mediums
    • Confidence to experiment with techniques and tools
