Gouache: Flowers Simplified


Online

Paint striking botanical compositions inspired by the bold, minimal floral style of Alex Katz


More details

Capture the essence of flowers using a contemporary, graphic approach. This workshop will teach you how to paint striking botanical compositions using opaque gouache, drawing inspiration from the legendary minimal floral works of contemporary artist Alex Katz. He revolutionized modern botanical art by stripping away details to focus on flat fields of vibrant color and clean, dramatic silhouettes. Class exercises include breaking down complex floral forms into simple shapes and working with bold, solid colors. Whether you are a beginner looking to overcome the fear of the blank page or an experienced painter wanting to loosen up your style, this workshop will teach you how to see and paint flowers in a completely fresh way. Some painting experience recommended. See supply list. SATURDAY, MARCH 6, 1:30 - 4:30PM(PCT) ONLINE
