Learn to paint abstracts to motivate your own creativity and develop your artistic skills. To work abstractly allows you too escape from painting 'pictures' or working from examples. Even if you prefer to continue painting reality, abstracting remains the ideal way of reproducing reality according to your own interpretation. Abstract painting paves the way to pure, creative artistic expression and originality without any complicated techniques, regardless of any previous drawing or painting experience.

In each workshop of the Abstract Series you will be shown different approaches and mixed media techniques on how to start an abstract painting. You will learn about composition, colour and textures as well as ways to sidestep your mind. In each session, you will create several paintings intuitively and all art supplies will be provided!
