Class Description

Description

What you'll learn in this painting class:

Learn about Henri Matisse & create vibrant cut-out works!

Towards the end of his life, Henri Matisse created a series of colorful and vibrant works capturing the energy of falling foliage. He used a technique he called “drawing with scissors," which involved painting with gouache on paper, cutting out leaf-shaped pieces and assembling them on boards. During this event, you'll learn about Matisse’s vibrant cut-out works and create your own works by painting, cutting,  and assembling paper on board.

Fauvist Painting

Known for his expressive use of color, loose brushwork, and joyful approach to painting, Henri Matisse revolutionized the art world by using color not merely to represent reality, but to evoke emotion and create an entirely new visual language.

After a brief lecture on the fauvist movement, you’ll experiment with vivid color combinations, energetic brushstrokes, and simplified forms—just as Matisse did in masterpieces like Woman with a Hat and The Red Studio. The workshop will encourage you to break free from traditional representations and create art that is driven by feeling and expression, rather than realism.

Ticket includes art history lesson, all art materials and aprons/smocks/coveralls to wear while making art. 

Refund Policy
