The Art of Allegory
"Each painting has its own way of evolving. When the painting is finished , the subject reveals itself."  William Baziotes (early American painter)1912-1963

Oil or Acrylic painters, would you like your creations to be more than just  pretty pictures? We will review, through Art history, allegorical themes and painters of allegory. As we understand the concept, we will develop our own work. Class structure will include guidance in developing your creation and positive critiques at the end of each session. 

We will interact as a group as well as 'one-on-one' with the instructor. For more information Contact Claudia

This is a two day workshop for Oil or Acrylic painters who want to explore new avenues or painters who have a painting that has reached a standstill; perhaps a painting that you know is not finished but you don’t know quite how to complete it. This is a class that enlightens. The workshop is designed to point you in the direction you want to go as a painter and to clarify your style. It is also for painters who would like their creations to be more than, or other than, just a “pretty picture”.

We will review through art history, allegorical themes and painters of allegory. Allegorical art is based on intent. Class structure will include guidance in developing your creation and positive critiques midway and at the end of each class.

We will interact as a group as well as ‘one-on-one’ with the instructor. Bring pictures, photos or a composite of images that symbolize what you wish to express or that painting you wish to resolve. This means a little bit of homework before you come to the workshop. It would benefit everyone to look up painters of allegory before class, as this is a joint discussion of information and ideas. Some painting experience necessary. Supply list.
