Concept
Experience the magic of Anderson Ranch from the comfort of your own home or studio with this new virtual printmaking and painting workshop. This isn’t your average Zoom experience—this workshop includes two immersive, hands-on learning tutorials designed to feel like you’re right here in the Ranch studio. With small class sizes (limited to 14 participants), you’ll enjoy personalized instruction, meaningful feedback, and the chance to connect with a creative community.
About the Workshop
Rediscover your approach to image-making through this virtual, mixed-media painting class. Taking inspiration from artists throughout history and their diverse approaches to combining media, we then set up our own compositions, filling our paintings with meaning, wonder, pattern, form and color. The class focuses on experimenting with abstract mark-making as well as representational imagery. We explore various ways to utilize acrylic and delve into collage and printmaking techniques, such as pochoir, stencils, and trace monotype, to create new and surprising marks.
PLEASE NOTE: This virtual workshop will be held live via Zoom on Monday and Thursday, October 6th and 9th, from 12-2PM MST.
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. Recordings will be available for 60 days following the workshop.
