Matisse – expressive colour
£42.00
Evening workshop 1-session
Matisse inspired the world with bold shapes and ground-breaking use of outrageous expressive colour.
For the first time in art, paintings were able to express the artists feelings, rather than simply describe objects.
Learn to use personal and emotive colour.
Suitable for: Adult, beginners, improvers, intermediate
Course Structure
This practical tutor-led workshop will enliven student’s own creativity and offer them new ideas to improve their own drawing and painting. There is added inspiration from contemporary living artists that will give a modern twist to Matisse’s influence. Students will create their own expressive contemporary still life drawings that embrace the bold use of personally expressive colour.
Inspiration
THE MAIN FOCUS
Students will learn that even now in the 21 century artists are still reflecting on the issues Matisse tried to resolve. The focus of the workshop is to guide students to explore and develop their own personal skills and techniques. Students will be supported and guided to create inspired, personal, creative artwork that help them develop their own drawing or painting style.
What will students be drawing or painting?
Contemporary still life drawings that play with colour relationships to enhance personal self-expression – transforming everyday objects into emotionally charged subject matter.
Students will be using acrylic paints and pencils during the workshop.
By the end of the workshop…
Students will leave the workshop understanding Matisse’s ideas more fully. Having travelled a creative journey to discover their own creative solutions, students will be better able to transform their own drawing and painting.
