Always wanted to do mixed media abstract painting but don’t know where to begin? Experience demos, techniques, basic formulas, compositions, and color techniques to create more meaningful abstracts. Imagine painting with your fingers, paper towels, and brushes. This wildly creative class is about creating new artwork. This is a concentrated workshop, emphasizing planning and playing with your painting, from your concept to the creation of a series. Be prepared to paint looser, bolder, freer, and lighter. We will experiment with variations in materials and techniques, using acrylic, watermedia paints, and collages. Plenty of time for painting exercises. This workshop is a serious approach for those who have a great sense of humor and a positive attitude. All levels. Handouts will be emailed.
This workshop will be held at Cheap Joe's Art Stuff in Boone, NC. Class hours will be Monday-Friday from 9 am-4:00 pm with a 1-hour lunch break. Friday's class will be 9 am-1 pm. The workshop tuition does not include additional dining (breakfast, dinner, snacks), lodging, travel expenses, and supplies. To see more of what Boone and the High Country has to offer, check here.
Your workshop tuition includes lunches Monday through Thursday catered by Wildwood Community Market and Deli, a local gourmet delicatessen specializing in locally sourced organic produce, meats and cheeses, and bread. This lunch option will allow students to focus on their art without the stress of traveling and dining. Additionally, Cheap Joe's Staff has organized a Welcome Dinner for participants who choose to participate at one of our excellent local restaurants.

Robert Burridge, a noted award-winning Industrial Designer who, after twenty-five years in the corporate world, focused his life on painting every day. Burridge attributes his success to his education at the University of the Arts in Philadelphia, his stint as an adjunct professor at Cooper Union in New York City, and in 1966, his Fluxus art performances with Yoko Ono, Nam June Paik, Jim McWilliams, and Charlotte Moorman.
His work hangs in permanent collections of international embassies, corporate galleries, and art colleges. His solo museum exhibitions received positive attention, so he was invited to exhibit his paintings at the Smithsonian Folklife Circus Arts Festival in Washington, DC.
