Beyond Color: Painting Tutorial #1

Welcome to Beyond Color: Using Paint to Heal, Create & Grow! Join me in exploring your thoughts and feelings using paint. Sometimes it helps to just get that stuff out on a piece of paper or canvas. From personal experience, I am a firm believer that color heals and painting helps! I will lead you with exercises in acrylic painting, teaching art elements, concepts and different painting techniques in the world of abstract expressionism, a vehicle to explore your thoughts and feelings with color & more.

Abstract Expressionism is not about drawing or painting something in a realistic way, rather it is about using the Elements of Art: Color, Line, Shape, Texture, Space & Form and Art Concepts: Balance, Emphasis, Harmony, Movement, Pattern, Proportion, Rhythm, Unity, and Variety to express what is inside of you.

Start with the Welcome and work your way down with Favorite Art Materials, Art Bit #1 and A Bird’s Eye View Demo #1. The rest of the videos are in the pull down menu at the upper right under Beyond Color: Blogposts & Tutorials.
