Instructor: Marlene Lowden (Click for Bio)

This in-depth five-day workshop was designed to help participants explore the expressive possibilities of mark-making in abstract art. Through engaging activities and insightful discussions, attendees immersed themselves in color theory, composition, and the use of design elements to cultivate their unique artistic voice. The workshop emphasized mark-making techniques with acrylic paint, though participants were welcome to use oils during free painting sessions. Key topics included colour theory, composition, and the application of the seven elements and principles of design in abstract art.
