A new abstract painting workshop titled 'Evening Walk' is being offered at the local adult education center, focusing on capturing impressions and moods rather than creating realistic representations. The course emphasizes the artistic technique of using warm colors that meet cold tones, creating a dreamy effect where colors blur together on wet surfaces.
The workshop centers around painting a scene that depicts the reflection of a colorful umbrella on wet ground, with a shadowy figure barely perceptible in the composition. Participants will learn how color contrasts work together and discover how rough, basic forms can combine to create a complete and compelling visual image.
The primary focus of the course is to teach students how to convey the emotional impact and atmospheric feeling of a scene, moving away from traditional realistic painting approaches. Students will work with acrylic paints on canvas, exploring how different color temperatures interact and influence the overall mood of their artwork.
The workshop is scheduled for Wednesday, November 26, running from 5:00 PM to 8:00 PM at the adult education center. Interested participants can find more information and register for the course by visiting the center's website at www.vhs-brandenburg.de. The course materials and instruction will be provided as part of the registration fee.
