Bring your sketchbook and your paints! We will dive into mark making and develop an abstract language that is unique to you. We'll discuss the importance of using value in your work to create a sense of depth and space. We will mix a limited harmonious pallet, and explore the construction of organic forms. We'll then focus on composition by arranging those forms to create dynamic relationships. We will also start working on Abstract cityscapes using texture to create forms.

About the Instructor:

Jennifer Bobola joined the Park Hill Art Club in January 2013. She has had a wide range of teaching experience from undergraduates to adult education.  Jennifer studied art in the Netherlands, attending Utrecht School of the Arts, and with Kevin Weckbach and Mark Nelson of Colorado. She also went to school for music performance in saxophone. Jennifer uses a thoughtful approach, allowing experimentation and improvisation to make my work more balanced and alive, while manipulating dimensions of color and shape.
