Favourite Photos Make Fun Paintings

In this workshop, students will use the pursuit of pleasure to create FUN artwork. Bring one or two printed or online photographs that you like, art supplies that you like to use, and a childlike wonder about making art for an exciting fun filled, friendly weekend at MISSA this summer.

Barry will guide you step by step through a fun & easy creation of your project.

Using their own preferred art materials, students will learn how to quickly and easily make CONTOUR DRAWINGS and paintings from their photos. Students will learn how to express their feelings (pleasure) about their photo subject matter. (Learn to express with Content, Value, Color). Students will learn how to make artwork that is fun, easy and enjoyable rather than a stressful, difficult task. (Use a Childlike Awe Now approach).

Expect to go home with artwork you had  lots of fun creating.
