SUMMARY:In Gallery Mixed Media Abstract Painting
DESCRIPTION:In this class enter the Art of the Abstract using mixed mediums\, fluid acrylics\, acrylic ink\, neocrayons\, pencils and permanent markers. This requires some self-examination and exploration to find your visual inspiration to actualize the art and to create a finished work by the end of the 5-week session. \nStart with a couple of small 5 x7 mat boards doing fast\, fun\, instinctual exercises and small expanding scribbles and doodles. Then graduate to a larger substrate and with some guidance go through the steps to complete your abstract work of art. \nSupply list available upon registration and instructions for caring for your new supplies to use them again and again. \nRegina Thomas’ collage and mixed media art is a mélange of visual stimuli\, colors\, and shapes involving different genres from the representational to the abstract. These multi-layered works portray her view of the world\, never realistic\, injecting her own narratives\, metaphors\, and icons. Regina works instinctually\, and her desire is to stimulate and intrigue the viewer\, make a connection\, bringing their own experiences to the work. \nRegina has lived and traveled throughout Asia and Europe. While in London\, she attended Richmond University concentrating on the Art Disciplines as well as Studio classes. Upon her return to the states she continued refining her art through classes and workshops at RISD (Rhode Island School of Design)\, The New Art Center in Newton – MA\, South Shore Art Center – MA\, West Hartford Art League\, Creative Arts Workshop/New Haven\, CT\, Yale University and The British Art Museum. \nRegina has been included in many juried exhibitions in New England. Thomas shows in private galleries and has private collectors across the U.S.\, Europe\, South America and Asia. Her most recent shows have been at The John Slade Ely House in New Haven\, and The Spectrum Gallery in Centerbrook where she also holds classes in collage and mixed media art. \nDates: January 29; February 5\, 12\, 19\, 26. Makeup if necessary March 5.
