Hands-on with Landscape Painting
with Paloma Vianey
In conjunction with the exhibition Three Lines, join us for a hands-on workshop led by 2023 CARD Fellow Paloma Vianey where participants are invited to experiment with landscape painting as a form of expression and visual language. Participants are asked to bring a piece of fabric and photo and that represents home, whether it be a physical place, a landscape or an interior space, and together we will explore the meanings of color, color theory and home place through monochromatic landscape painting.
No experience necessary. All materials provided.
