Monochrome Magic: A 2 day workshop with Naomi Tamura
Monochrome Magic: A Two-Day Workshop in Expressive Simplicity
Explore value, mood, and material through one color.
With Naomi Tamura
Two Fridays, September 26 & October 3, 10 am- 2 pm
In this two-day workshop, we’ll explore the rich potential of working within a limited palette, using just one color (and its range of values) to create compelling, layered works of art. Participants will engage with monochromatic drawing, painting, and mixed-media techniques, incorporating elements such as collage, texture, and mark-making to build depth, evoke emotion, and create a narrative.
After introducing the fundamentals of monochromatic art, each artist will be encouraged to select a color to explore and experiment with, layering visual storytelling using a variety of materials, including graphite, ink, paint, and found materials. On Day Two, artists can further work on their selected color or choose a second color to explore abstraction, mood, or personal themes in more depth.
Price is for both days: $115 or $80 for OHCA members. $20 materials fee to be paid to the instructors firs day of class.
Get ready for our November Monochromatic show in the Gallery!
