In this two-day workshop, I’ll guide you through one of my favorite creative processes—building luminous abstract paintings using large palette knives and acrylic color blocks. Together, we’ll explore how color, design, and a bit of spontaneity can transform a simple idea into something alive with energy.
We’ll start by creating underpaintings and experimenting with color combinations and compositional balance. From there, we’ll dive into the expressive fun of layering, blending, and embracing those wonderful happy accidents that happen when we let go of perfection and trust the process.
My goal is to help you create without fear—to discover how much joy and freedom can come from letting color lead the way. Whether you’re an experienced artist or just beginning, you’ll leave with a vibrant piece that feels truly your own and a fresh approach to your creative practice.
We will create in my Duluth Studio 5207 Peabody St Duluth, MN, 55804. If you are coming in from out of town and need lodging we highly recommend the Lake Superior Brewing Brewtel. They offer 1, 2, and 3 bedroom airbnb’s.
