Learn to paint abstractly using colors, shapes, thickness of paint, and other materials to build depth, layering and design. Expand your creativity and skill set as you explore new techniques to create unique and vibrant pieces. Wear comfortable shoes, clothing, and an apron and be prepared to get messy!
