Anne Grgich | Workshops | The Obsessive Paintbrush

Anne Grgich shares her obsessive intense painting techniques and a full repertoire of painting and brushstroke method. Anne assists in students' creation of passionate painterly works on paper or canvas. Express your imagination more directly by practicing connectedness of hand and eye in playful painting exercises practicing with mixed media and layering, color and form.

Take a day to learn how to make full sweeping brushstrokes and gestures and move swirling paint-passionately onto canvass from within and realize your painterly touch. Enjoy a full day of prolific creation and guidance from an inspired teacher. You will learn how to carve and layer and paint up a storm. Annie provides almost all of the materials and takes you by the hand and through the process. The class is designed to move fast and will be a blast and you will go home with lots of pieces.
