UPCOMING DEMONSTRATION AND WORKSHOP

Lyme Art Association DEMONSTRATION AND WORKSHOP

Gigi Horr Liverant, Demonstration, June 10, 2:00-4:00 pm

In this demonstration, Gigi will share her method of developing artwork, particularly her process for choosing color. After first composing the foundation of a painting, she lets color interplay articulate the painting’s emotional impact.

The demonstration will be done using pastels, but concepts apply to all paint mediums. More information at: https://lymeartassociation.org/demos-critiques/

Two-Day Workshop, July 22-23, 10:00 am – 4:00pm

Want to get reacquainted with R O Y G. B I V (Red, Orange, Yellow, Green, Blue, Indigo and Violet)? Join Gigi Liverant in this 2-day Color Dynamics Workshop and learn how to maximize the potential of color relationships in your artwork. Kandinsky said, “Color is a power which directly influences the soul.” Let’s do some soul searching!

Students will be given color manipulatives and prompted to explore the possibilities of using varied color combinations that best express your ideas. Each day will begin with a demonstration followed by lots of opportunities to explore color applications for your compositions. The two-day workshop will be geared towards the individual artist’s goals and abilities, and the color exploration can be executed in all mediums that use a full range of color.
