MARLENE LOWDEN ~ Create with Confidence
About the workshop
Media: acrylics
Levels: beginner to intermediate
When painting, I sometimes feel that the freedom I have to choose colours, the subject and technique can actually be overwhelming, stopping me from starting and making me constantly second guess my decisions. I have found it essential to create some boundaries before I begin so that I can paint with more confidence. This structure gives me MORE freedom.
Through a series of exercises that explore the 7 elements of design, we are going to create our own personal reference guides to support our art practice. Having a foundation to lean on will give you greater confidence while you paint.
