Dynamic Shape Making in Abstract Painting
ā€”
Free Live Artist Demo with Jenny Nelson
Shapes have personalities and stories to tell! They have a life of their own, and each one evokes a different emotional response. The deconstructing of your forms, the building and rebuilding, is the foundation for creating strong shape personalities.
In this live demo, youĀ will:
- Watch me demonstrate a shape making exercise that you can incorporate into your work right away
- Gain insight about creating edges, volume, and relationships
- Explore a simple process to begin several related forms
- Learn to use a variety of tools that instill a mindset of inquiry and flexibility
You'll learn to develop shapes that make your heart sing and feel authentic to your work. PlusĀ there will be a Q&A at the end.
Join me for this FREE liveĀ demo via Zoom:
Sunday, December 8th @ 12:00pm ET
