    Interpretive / Abstract Landscapes (any medium) *SOLD OUT* Thursdays (9:30am-12:30pm) Judy Mayer-Grieve (Level 2 and up) 8 weeks (March 27-May 15)

    $245.00 – $275.00
    In this course, interpretation of the landscape painting takes precedence over accurate depiction. This means colors, shapes, and forms may be altered or exaggerated to convey a specific feeling or idea. For example, a sunset might be painted with vibrant, unnatural colors to evoke a sense of drama or emotion. Or  A stormy sky might be used to symbolize turmoil or intensity. This may also include abstract or semi-abstract elements, such as simplified shapes, bold brushstrokes, or non-representational forms; trees might be reduced to geometric shapes, or the horizon line might be distorted to create a sense of movement.
