VIRTUAL WORKSHOP
Possibilities in Painting, Drawing & Collage
Aug 30 - Sep 3, 2021
1PM-4PM MST
Concept
This virtual, project-based workshop for artists of all levels guides students to making unique and personal works of art while combining painting, drawing and collage. Technical exploration, perception, development of ideas, intuition, invention, representation and communication are at the core of this workshop. Students explore different ways of working with acrylic paint and expand on the idea of what painting is by integrating alternative painting materials. Each painting begins with drawing and collaging in order to generate our own sources of inspiration. Technical demonstrations, facilitated via video-conferencing software, will encourage students to boldly explore different approaches to art making and to foster fearlessness when tackling new materials and processes.
This workshop meets via Zoom Video Conferencing software (download free from Zoom.com). An Anderson Ranch staff member co-teaches the class and coordinates the online platform. Further details will be emailed to registrants.
Media & Techniques
Painting in acrylic, drawing, collage, one-on-one and group critiques.

Students focus on color mixing using a traditional palette with linseed oil and Gamsol as mediums, developing formal strengths such as composition, and on creating form and spatial relationships. Subject matter prompts encourage mining for content within current events, literary and cinematic material, and other common media consumed within contemporary culture.

Accessing the Abstract
Rema Ghuloum
Tuition $1,415
Code D0408-25
In this rigorous and productive painting course, we explore the generative elements of our individual and shared visual language as it relates to abstract painting. Through daily assignments, prompts, and a series of one-on-one and group critiques, we focus on how to access our inherent intentions in regards to mark making, brushwork, and color and build on our ideas. Students interested in exploring the emotive qualities of paint and/or the desire to delve into abstraction in their paintings are also welcome to use meditation as a tool. With these exercises, we cultivate our work alongside each other and hone our language to constructively conceive of and discuss our varying artistic processes—and what inspires our work to develop.
