WORKSHOP DATE: July 13 - August 10, 2020
WHEN: Mondays, 9:30am - 12pm
WHERE: Virtual on Zoom, by the Provincetown Art Association and Museum
SESSIONS: 5 sessions
PRICE: $240 for PAAM members, $250 for non-members
TEACHERS: Laura Shabott with Alana Barrett
Each of the five sessions will begin with looking at works from PAAM’s collection, or at each other’s art, as prompts for the material being presented that day. We start with gesture drawings, then move on to evolving exercises based in the Hofmann tradition of abstracting the figure while working from nature. Artists can create drawings, paintings, mixed media collage or sculpture.
The emphasis in the course, limited to nine people, is to make a body of work and develop, or refine, a unique visual language and the confidence that comes with acceptance of your true artist self. For someone who wants to dive into a practice head on, or someone who wants to experience connection welcome.
