Abstract Botanicals with Carla Jenning
November 10 @ 10:00 am – 4:00 pm
Join International Award Winning Carla for a fun day of paper & paint with mixed media and collage as she takes you through her process of creating an elegant botanical artwork.
Join Carla as she teaches her intuitive process of building exciting layers with different mediums.
We will be using inks, acrylic, pens & stencils to create a beautiful abstract botanical piece full of energy & detail.
Experimenting with organic shapes, mark-making, and contrast, this workshop will teach you to enjoy the process more than focusing on the outcome.
Suitable for complete beginners or experienced painters. This workshop is a fresh approach to painting & by the end of the day you’ll be buzzing with ideas & inspiration to carry forward into future projects.
