Event details

Take a journey through different aspects of abstract painting and find what works for you as an artist. Mila demonstrates painting intuitively by tapping into emotions instead of using recognizable imagery. This practical, fun, and process-oriented workshop will guide you to confidence, clarity and freedom of expression in your art. If you’re looking to uncover and develop what’s unique about YOUR artistic voice, or to loosen up your art, that’s what this workshop is all about.
