We will explore the issues central to abstract painting and the function of drawing in developing one’s own language. This class focuses on developing each artist’s passion for making abstract art through a range of activities, studying in particular how to explore one’s inspiration and ideas via the process and using a language specific to each artist to develop these ideas into coherent images. Artists are encouraged to work from the source material that is personal to them and to engage in a dialogue with contemporary exhibiting artists whose work is relevant to their own.
It is anticipated that each artist will develop a deeper understanding of their own inclinations and their role in creating their artwork with the ultimate goal of developing a coherent body of work.
The class is open to all levels.

PAINTING IN ACRYLICS information
Acrylic Paints (Golden, Liquitex - higher quality, Utrecht)
Depending on your budget, it is your choice as to the brand you choose. Since we are emphasizing experimentation, a less expensive brand like Utrecht is fine. If you choose a higher grade acrylic, I recommend Golden Brand.
Golden Fluid Acrylics are highly intense, permanent acrylic colors with a consistency similar to heavy cream. Produced from lightfast pigments, not dyes, they offer very strong colors with very thin consistencies, and contain no fillers or extenders. Golden Fluid Acrylics are ideal for spraying, brushing, and staining.
Viscosity refers to the consistency or thickness of the paint. Heavy body acrylics have a thick, buttery consistency which retains brush strokes and facilitates color mixing and blending. Fluid acrylics are thinner (but contain the same pigment concentration) and are suited to detail work, staining watercolor techniques, and dry-brush work.
Please note, New York School of the Arts charges a $50 one-time registration fee for students who are new to their school. This is automatically added to the cost of your enrollment (and already included in the price listed on this course). If you are a returning student to NYSA, please let us know and we will refund you $50.

Holidays & Canceled Lessons:
We are closed for Thanksgiving, winter, and spring break. If we must close due to the weather, we will send out an email. If classes are canceled, the instructor will work with the school office to schedule a make-up date. We do not refund/prorate for weather closure, and our make-up policy still applies.
