This exploratory, mixed-media workshop for artists of all skill levels studies painting fundamentals with a broad interpretation of the medium, incorporating new materials, processes, and applications. It introduces the complexities of the craft, emphasizing the development of ideas and techniques and encouraging students to think outside the box. In addition to experimentation, the workshop emphasizes traditional and nontraditional resources and methods, discussions, and critiques of possibilities and results. Studio demonstrations accompany the discussion of narratives of community, culture, and identity.
