The Waxarika people of the Sierra Madre mountains in Mexico, create astounding, colorful paintings made of yarn. Images are drawn on a wooden board, and then the surface is covered with sticky beeswax. This holds the entire painting together!

Abstract art invites artists to move beyond traditional imagery and transform thoughts, ideas, and emotions into visual form. In this class, students explore the origins and concepts of abstraction while learning a variety of art-making processes designed to spark creativity and experimentation.

Each class begins with a brief lesson and demonstration, followed by guided studio time where artists are encouraged to take their work in a personal direction. This course is perfect for adult artists looking to break creative habits, expand their thinking, and explore abstraction in a supportive, relaxed studio environment. No prior abstract experience required—just an open mind and a willingness to explore.

Georgia O’Keefe became a painter well-known for her exploration of nature through her Art. Focusing on the center of a flower or a very small detail, she created large scale, abstract images. In photographic terms she “zoomed in” or used macro points of view to draw from. Not only will students learn to create these compositions, they will learn how to vary colors in their paintings from light to dark enhancing the vibrancy of these artworks. Students will sketch in watercolor and gouache and final paintings in acrylic. (We use a non-toxic method of oil painting.)
