“Art Explore”

The “Art Explore” is a six week workshop involving hands-on art exercises with a variety of basic art supplies, requiring no previous art experience or skill. This workshop enhances one’s ability to appreciate art in general as well as playfully explore one’s own artistic potential, and build some skills at the same time.

 Starting with the void of empty space we will progress with visual art exercises that become increasingly complex, involving a wide range of approaches to the theme of development for each week. We will look at examples of art by many of the famous artists to better understand the concepts.

  1. Centered; mandalas, round, tree as self, single color
  2. Duality; positive/negative space, mirroring, opposite colors
  3. Patterns; movement, patterns in our world, color as light
  4. Systems; perspective, family, color as depth
  5. Paradox; optical illusions, color in context
  6. Juxtaposition; interplay of all of the above
