Intuitive Painting Exploration

Workshop Description: Enjoy a guided journey through the practice of painting intuitively, a method that centers memory, sensation, and connection. In this workshop you will learn how to prioritize feeling over fact, and you’ll watch as your pieces unfold and reveal themselves – a dialogue between painter and painting. You will be using acrylic paint on paper at a relatively large scale, and learn the processes for painting without a specific plan in mind.

Instructor Bio: Caro is a painter and muralist based in Salt Lake City, Utah. Caro paints primarily from memory, focusing more on the way a place felt than the facts of how it looked. In this way, memory morphs and heightens the shapes, shadows and colors of her landscape- blurring the facts in a way that feels more honest and true to the experience that it came from. At its heart, Caro’s work is about a personal relationship with landscapes, and all of the human and non-human influences and presences within them. She has years of experience teaching her intuitive painting curriculum, a practice that is foundational to her own painting career.
