Intro to Abstract Art

In this class, the participant will explore various layering processes in abstract painting and drawing to create depth and texture in their art.

Gina is an abstract painter who uses water-based mediums on paper and canvas. She focuses on discovery, growth, and stillness as she connects materials to her surroundings. She finds trust in the act and beauty of each layer. Through her meditative process, she infuses patience and adaptability into her work, welcoming new techniques, materials, relationships, and approaches as they develop in real-time. She refines her process in small moments and allows the works itself to provide instantaneous feedback and modify her path with purpose and intention. Space, environment, and land transpose into Gina’s dreamlike works that mingle her sense of place, vast landscapes, memories, collage, color relationships, and energy. Her ethereal paintings work to soothe the mind and create space for moments of contemplation, softness, and personal reflection. She works in fluid layers, with each revealing new energy and emotions, delving deeper into her own and our collective psyche.
