Service Description

IMPRESSIONIST FLOWERS IN SOY WAX BATIK This four week mini session is an exploration of expressive abstract techniques applied to silk. A contemporary approach to Batik, resulting in beautiful fine art for wall hangings or wearable scarves. Students will employ a loose, abstract and painterly approach in rendering floral imagery on silk. Working on a 22"x22" silk square suspended and stretched on a frame, students will be influenced and inspired by the French impressionist painters and their floral bouquets, sprays and fields of flowers. Participants may bring a collection of floral photos as reference, or refer to available images provided by the instructor. Absolutely no painting or drawing experience necessary! When considering the French Impressionist painters, one may think of Renoir with his vases of roses or chrysanthemums, or sunflowers in a vase by Monet. Mary Cassettes’ Lilacs in a Window are a loosely rendered interpretation of lilacs. Florals have been a popular subject of painters throughout history, they are almost a textural element in an abstract painting. In this class we will explore how to use soy wax batik to render impressionistic and abstracted interpretations of flowers. Students should bring paper towels and disposable gloves. Supply fee: $20.00 payable to the instructor at the first class covers all other supplies. Class must meet min of 4 students by April 14 to run.
