From Concept to Completion - Abstract Painting on Panel in Acrylics & Mixed Media- with Deb Chaney and Rojia Dadashzadeh

Each participant will experience working on three wood panels as we take you on a creative journey sharing our art making process with you from start to finish.

Students will be encouraged to explore language, colour, composition, nurture emotional richness, spontaneity and experimentation and to develop conceptual ideas.

A slide show presentation of modern art will be given with discussion and emphasis on composition, balance, colour, form, symbolism,the representation of motion ,and the superimposition of images in the organization of space in abstract paintings.

Both one-on-one and group critiques are aimed at enhancing individual growth.

Media will include heavy body acrylics, mixing and pouring mediums, moulding pastes and gels, and professional grade MSA or Polymer Varnish. Various materials and mediums, for example, coloured pencil, crayon, and inks will be introduced and used to experiment within the painting process.
