Creating Abstract Art with The Joy of Fall Palettes Workshop with Tricia Caracappa
September 19 @ 6:30 pm - 8:30 pm
$52.00 – $65.00On September 19, dive into the beauty of fall through the eyes of abstract art.
Learn to mix vibrant, warm autumn hues and create an abstract painting inspired by the landscape of the Northeast in the Fall…. apple orchards, pumpkin patches, rustic barns, reservoirs with a backdrop of patchwork mountains, dirt roads freckled with colorful leaves.
Workshop includes a canvas. Participants will also be given a palette knife and paintbrush to continue their color mixing journeys at home or back in their studios.
Bring your own inspirational photo or choose from one on hand to get you in the joyful mood of using fall color palettes and nature’s inspiration to create warm earthy abstract art.
Light refreshments, wine and non-alcoholic beverages will be served.
