# Event Details - **Event Name**: Stan Kurth-The Intuitive Painting Mindset - **Event Start and End Date**: Wed, 09 Sep, 2026 at 09:00 am – Fri, 11 Sep, 2026 at 04:00 pm (-04:00) - **Event Description**: It is possible to understand and incorporate traditional representational painting with abstraction. Find out how in this workshop.About this Eventhttps://stankurth.com/In this workshop, you'll become acquainted with the intuitive painting mindset. In her book Mindset, Stanford psychologist Carol Dweck proposes that human qualities are not fixed—they can be cultivated. People can grow and improve in any area, including sports, art, music, business, parenting, or relationships. This growth also applies to intellectual skills.With this in mind, you'll begin to shift from a fixed mindset that separates traditional representational painting from abstraction. It is entirely possible to understand and incorporate both approaches in your work.Using various mark-making tools, watercolor, and gouache, lessons will begin without reference or preconceived ideas. You’ll create paintings from arbitrary design elements and bring them to completion using principles of design. The goal is to develop a painting that aligns with your personal aesthetic—whether representational or nonobjective. The only criteria: no reference, and a willingness to let the process guide the outcome.Franciscan Life Process CenterArt Workshop Registration and Cancellation PolicyA $150 deposit or payment in full is required for enrollment in any workshop.
