Kathleen Conover:  “Chaos to Order: a recipe for success” Create Dynamic Art!
Starting a painting with color, texture, gestural marks and layers may seem like “chaos”, but it delivers vital energy that is not only fun and intuitive but necessary.  Great design and composition are the elements that bring “order” to the rich starts.  Combine “chaos” with “order” to create attention-getting and expressive finished paintings.  Strengthening your compositional skills is a major focus in Kathleen Conover’s workshop. 

Beginner or advanced – you are encouraged to discover and explore your unique expression and personal imagery in realism, abstraction or non-objective.  Demonstrations, directed exercises, specific examples and individual attention will introduce new materials, techniques and concepts.  Specific lessons on texture building, color concepts, layering, how to do a value study, understanding design principles and elements, and more will be presented.  Learn to be your own critic: See your work with “new eyes”, identify problems and manipulate the design tools for your personal creative plan.   You will build traditional skills as well as explore and experiment with a variety of painting techniques and watermedia products.   “Most of all,” Kathleen says, “I want to help each artist advance to the next level in their work – no matter where they start.”   Bring your sense of adventure and enthusiasm for this high-energy, fully-packed workshop.
