Tiny Paintings
Working on a small canvas can allow for a spontaneous, fresh, and free artistic style. Experiments with color options, texture treatments, and composition arrangements can be carried out quickly and without the stress of filling a bigger area. Using a 10 x10 inch format at largest, we will use acrylic, watercolor, gouache, and mixed media as we investigate technique, composition, and other principles of art and design as we work on our pieces. As you become comfortable with your options, you'll be encouraged to create a series of images that includes diptychs and triptychs. Please gather paints, brushes, pencils, erasers and sheets of mixed media paper that you have on hand for our first class.
