Introduction:

Are you interested in exploring painting in a style between realism and abstraction? This 8-week immersion into collage, colour and painting will draw inspiration from a range of expressionist painters who are more concerned with their emotional responses than an objective reality. This class will help you draw and paint expressively with your own painting signature. This class continues to develop the practices of Dreaming in Colour 1 and is best suited to those who have some art experience.

"Beautiful experiment & experience with nature and connecting it to art but in a supportive guided flow. Fabulous!." Laine Anderson

"Enough practice & range of techniques for the duration culminating in a visible improvement in all the students skill levels." Denise Fitzpatrick

  • You will need to purchase some mixed media art materials (e.g. medium to large art journal, glue stick, acrylic paints, brushes, palette, boards, painting paper or stretched canvas to paint onto, kneadable rubber). If you don't currently have art supplies, or are uncertain what you may want to work with, the tutor will introduce you to various options at the first class.
