Just Announced!  Joan Fullerton has added "The Abstracted Landscape" workshop to her 2026  visit to the Art League, March 27-29, 2025!  This class will focus on visually indicating water and air, distance and atmosphere, land and vegetation. Joan and her students will simplify, fracture, exaggerate, or distort images to abstract the composition and add more visual intrigue. Techniques such as “fogging”, modifying edges, adding impasto areas, and incorporating transparencies will be used to add texture and interest. Register soon, as Joan's workshops always sell out!  Discover more about Joan and her work here.   Learn more about the workshop & register here!
