Playa Painting Workshop
Have you looked at my imagery and wondered what the designs are about- where they come from and what they mean? Curious about crop circles, sacred geometry, chaos and fractals and how those fit into my art? Or what they mean to you? Have a desire to doodle in the sand with one of my rakes and play with design potentials?
Great- then you'll love the workshop I have planned!
As time allows, we will go into the following areas:
crop circles- why are they so compelling
the origins of geometry and its impact on spirituality and humanity, the effects of which are felt throughout our culture
fractals- the language of nature, the algorithms of reality
chaos- is the universe truly chaotic?
the development of my art through these various lenses and how they inform the latest designs
demonstrations of my process, from the geometrical designs to the organic ones
then we'll play with the rakes and do some practical group exercises
finally I'll present the design options for that day and together work on possible variations- have a hand in designing the image we will later create!
At the appropriate time we'll move on to the painting area of the beach (the one below the overlook above) and get to work. We'll have 2 hours to do our thing before the tide returns.
I'm glad you'll be joining us, its a magical experience to see the process unfold- even more magical to be inside the design creating it!
