Are you an artist seeking to elevate your work to new heights? Look no further! In my class, we delve into the principles that are essential to any artistic practice, be it figurative, abstract, or landscape. At the core of my teachings lies the paramount significance of opposites in painting. By understanding the interplay of opposites, you can make informed decisions that result in vibrant and captivating artwork. Our class encourages the exploration of various mediums, such as watercolor, acrylics, and collage. Each artist follows their unique path, enriching their creations through the profound grasp of opposite forces. Join me on this artistic journey, where you can freely explore and experiment. Unleash your creativity and witness your art flourish like never before!
