Step into the vibrant world of Impressionism in this fun, hands-on painting workshop designed for artists of all levels! We’ll begin with a short presentation and video demo exploring the techniques of Impressionist masters—especially their use of *broken color* to create movement and light. After setting up materials and workspaces, you’ll learn how to use and customize painting sponges to create bold, textured marks. A guided demonstration will show you how to cut sponges into unique shapes and use them like brushes to apply paint in unexpected, expressive ways. Then it’s your turn! With plenty of time for Q\&A and personalized guidance, you’ll experiment with these tools and techniques on your own canvas. As your work dries, enjoy casual conversation with fellow participants—plus plenty of "ooo’s" and "aaahhh’s" as we admire each other's creations. We’ll wrap up with a mini-gallery walk full of celebration, back slaps, and well-earned applause. Come ready to get a little messy and leave with a piece that reflects your personal creative spark!
