Ugly Colors, Beautiful Paintings
Artober (2025) | Available
What happens when we intentionally make the "wrong" color choices? In this experimental workshop, students will begin by mixing strange, muddy, or “ugly” colors on purpose, then use those very mixes to create rich and unexpected paintings. Drawing inspiration from Fauvism, symbolism, and personal instinct, we’ll explore how any color, no matter how off-putting, can become beautiful in the right context.
Participants will leave with a painting and a transformed sense of color, freer, braver, and more intuitive.
This October—aka Artober!—we’re teaming up with CultureWorks to offer a special lineup of pay-as-you-will art classes! It’s all about making creativity accessible to all, because art is for EVERYONE.
All our Artober classes will have donation-based tuition.
