Nottingham School Of Artists
Tickets for 6 week course: £90
Discover the power of simplification and bold expression in Abstracting Shapes in Acrylic, a creative painting course designed to help you move beyond realism and into the world of abstraction. Through guided exercises and playful experimentation, you'll explore how to break down everyday subjects into simplified forms, dynamic compositions, and striking colour contrast. Led by Alexandra Ghimisi, a professional artist with decades of experience, this course will guide you through the process of painting with expressive brushwork, layering, and intuitive mark-making. Perfect for beginners and experienced artists alike, this course encourages personal interpretation and creative risk-taking in a supportive studio environment. Leave with a series of vibrant abstract works and a new toolkit of contemporary painting techniques.
