Product Details Artist Dylan Mierzwinski loves to paint more abstractly as a way to release expectation, be more present with her creativity, and surprise herself with new ideas. In this class—recorded using Zoom and featuring participation from the Skillshare community—you'll get to paint an abstract botanical right alongside her as she shares her tips and encouragement for being a little more loose in your work.
Throughout the 55-minute class, Dylan will teach you how to:

• Look at a reference photo and break it down into abstract shapes and composition
  
• Build up your own color palette by paying attention to light and tones within a reference
  
• Get playful with your visual language, using expressive strokes, shapes, and colors
  

Perfect for artists of any level, you'll finish with a completed painting and some new ideas and elements to bring into your style. While Dylan is working with acrylic gouache (and will share some of her favorite tips for working with this medium along the way), you could follow along with any paint you prefer.
