Join Sherri Lipman McCauley as she guides you into the world of painting on fabric. Explore the freedom of abstract painting with a variety of tools. With just a few gestures, you will experience the joy of creating in a serendipitous manner.
In each session, exploration will focus on applying paint on fabric to create a simple composition. Guidance will be provided in selection of tools, paint application and design.
Embellishments will be discussed, and simple hand stitching will be demonstrated. Each session will focus on a unique technique. Sign up for your favorite technique or come for all three.
- Sunday, February 22, 2-4pm. Gestural painting and stitch.

- Sunday, March 15, 2-4pm. Mark making with everyday objects.

Push the limit of your artwork. Your final creation will be ready to be framed and hung on the wall.
