(No Class: 8/14 & 8/21)

This class will help you find ways to express your connection to the landscape in abstract visual terms. We will play with simplifying and strengthening shapes and developing color relationships and textures that resonate with your feeling for place. We will look to artists both contemporary and historical for inspiration and methodology. This is a class for students at any level to explore and create in a supportive environment. The class tuition includes materials; if you would like to bring your own materials, please use code MINUSMATERIALS upon registration to have this fee deducted from the tuition.

(In the event that BAC has to cancel a class session due to weather or facility emergencies, please note the pre-scheduled make up date for this course will be Wednesday, September 4. More information on our policies for cancellations can be found HERE.)
