NBAL Art Workshops
Passionate Purposeful Painting with Holly Hunter Berry

September 18 - 20, 2020
Hours: 10:00 to 5:00 daily
Medium: Mixed Media - All Skill Levels Welcome!
Cost: NBAL Members $350, Non-Members $380
$100 Deposit Required
This is a contemporary semi-abstract painting workshop
using mixed media such as acrylics, various textures, drawing mediums (pastels, charcoal, etc.), and more.
What can you expect from this workshop? Have you ever wanted to create a painting but instead of looking exactly like a photo, have it be one that tells a story? Your interpretation of the subject instead of just the facts? A painting that is fun to create using a variety of materials? We will be creating a painting, plus numerous exercises, that is done with an awareness of a foundation of theory but with a large dose of intuition.
You will be given notes and a demo on how to use color, value, shapes, and line, plus an overview on how to best compose your painting. You will use your photos for inspiration. I will guide you in how to work with them so you can bring life to your canvas and have it explode with color and inspiring shapes.
Several methods to start a painting will be explored, including my Glorious Mess approach where the
painting almost paints itself using my Value Mapping technique. This is how I have been creating my
contemporary landscapes, and you will learn the secrets!
You will learn to say "what if?" and apply that thinking to your painting and discover new ways to portray your
subject. I will show you how to layer the paint so light goes through your painting, how to mix any color you want,
how to create that wow in your work.
This will be a fun, energizing workshop where you get to loosen up and create something new and original, a painting that is all yours. I will be bringing a variety of materials and supplies to share with you in addition to numerous notes.
You will leave the workshop with enough information from my notes plus your exercises that you can go home and continue exploring these new techniques.
I love what I do and am passionate about painting and teaching what I know. I hope you will join me and allow me to share my almost 40 years of experience with you. Bring your supplies, a desire to create, and a great sense of humor too. Hope to see you soon.
