This class is for the Intermediate or Advanced artist with a solid Drawing or Painting background. It is a class designed to find the energy locked inside every drawing. Using the techniques of the abstract expressionists, we will explore the ideas behind the things we see and visualize them from the inside out - and sometimes upside down! Feeling and expressing emotive content through personal mark making is the goal. This vibrant class is the segue into Experimental Drawing and Painting TWO, which is the foundational background for any modern art project you may want to get involved in. Another plus: You will not get bored and quite likely you will get messy. We move at a fast pace.

Warning: Do NOT wear nice clothes. Certain projects will be painted with bare hands and charcoal.

Instructor Bio:

Since enrolling in her first painting class in 1985 at a community arts center in Atlanta, Carolyn E. Rose has been actively interested in painting. She could tell right away how much drawing and painting meant to her. She earned a BFA in painting and drawing from SCAD in 2001 and an MFA in painting and drawing from Georgia State University in 2006. The High Museum of Art, the Woman Made Gallery in Chicago, and various other galleries in the Southeast have all displayed her work. She has experience teaching college students at all levels in drawing and painting, illustration, foundations (color theory & 2D design), art history, fashion history, and fashion design.
