Class Description

Explore the freedom of working large-scale with gestural techniques and applications that incorporate full-body movements in creating expansive artwork. Immerse yourself in a somatic experience, focusing on the connection between your body and the marks you make. Color choice, application, and explorative movement will be at the center of the process. This class provides a safe, nurturing, and therapeutic environment to delve into the process of art making.

A generous member of the FVAC community has offered to sponsor one 4-week session of Sarah's Expressive Process Painting class.
