Intro to Painting – Abstract Acrylic Still Life
BIG REMINDER – There are a lot of you with the ACRYLIC PRACTICE PAINTINGS still missing. After this week – those 2 weeks of practice will go in as a NP – Not Proficient and will be locked in as a 50%. Yikes. This does NOT represent your true skills but I cannot wait on these any longer.

It is time to put the experiences to use. Abstraction will help us focus on the techniques of the acrylics as well as being able to play with the ideas of the abstraction of the images. What are you focusing on as it comes to Analytical Cubism? Remember to SIMPLIFY and COMPLICATE. We are looking at the images from MANY DIFFERENT ANGLES.
