This painters' retreat pushes you out of your safe zone and into a brand new looser, abstract direction. Day One: Painting with your materials, using techniques that lay the foundation for the rest of the week. Day Two & Three: Focus on loose painting and drawing the undraped model. Each day starts with wet paint sketches plus Bob's popular warm-up exercises. You will be producing a fresh new body of work with your own artistic voice and point of view. Day Four & Five: Creative tearing and paint splashing, starting each day with small paper collaging – making new work and utilizing the figurative paint sketches. Enjoy afternoons of lively marketing conversations with Kate Burridge. Model fees included.
