Today I taught my 5th Splatter Painting Workshop through VineArts.
I love to let the paint fly!
and I love to encourage others to allow their creative hearts to be set free by using splatter painting techniques. we start out by doing some Jackson Pollock type painting and then let the creativity flow where it will. splatter techniques can enhance other styles of painting and mediums...the only limitation is your own imagination. 
we listen to expressive music during the workshop to help people get into a creative zone where the paint and the music and their hearts can converge and dance together. what they create is pretty amazing, as it comes from within them...it's very therapeutic and allows for personal expression. 
Pure Freedom!!!
towards the end of the workshop we all worked together on one large canvas (5ftx13ft) to create a Pollock-style masterpiece...yes, that's right...all of us together working on one painting. it's pretty incredible to experience. what starts out to be several individuals painting...turns into a dance of paint and bodies and canvas becoming one. afterwards everyone is pretty elated and covered in paint!
