Naturally Abstract: Painting with Earth Pigments

with Meg Jorgenson

$120

Join LA based Artist Meg Jorgenson for an exploration of painting with earth pigments.

In this workshop our intention will be to explore visual expression through abstract impressionist painting, with an emphasis on working with paints derived from clay and flora.

Meg Jorgenson is a painter based in Los Angeles. She is known for her meditative works that explore the congruence between natural figuration and poetic abstraction. Her studied experimentation in creating pigments from foraged natural elements creates a sense of refraction with color and texture. Drawing inspiration from ancient parietal painters who used clay-derived paints to communicate as well as the pioneering female artists of spiritualism, Jorgenson utilizes art as a medium to delve into ephemeral moments of the soul. An interplay between the tangible and the subconscious, her work invites the viewer into a transcendental landscape that evolves with the beauty of attention.

Rebecca Holopter is a multi-hyphenate artist who focuses on ease, joy, and nostalgia. Jealous of her brother's ninja turtle drawings, Rebecca's aunt set her down at a young age and said "it's just practice." With this sentiment, Rebecca continued to practice and study art throughout college. In 2015 she drew and animal a day (maintaining the practice while drinking wine in Italy!) and in 2016 she extended the practice with a watercolor painting a day. Since then she has continued with watercolor adding in other art mediums such as embroidery, acrylic, and pastels to explore skin tones and textures in colorful portraits and the freedom in excessive abstracts. She has taught in different mediums for the past 6 years and encourages her students with the same sentiment that was instilled in her - it's all just practice.

Experience the alchemy of silver clay!

The second portion of the class will focus on polishing, filing, and placing jump rings.  Students will have the chance to learn to solder, use a variety of jewelry making tools, and create a small collection of pure silver charms.  Sterling silver findings will be provided.

Each student will recieve 5 grams of clay with their workshop fee.  Additional clay can be purchased in the studio for $5/gram.

Meg Jorgenson is a painter based in Los Angeles. She is known for her meditative works that explore the congruence between natural figuration and poetic abstraction. Her studied experimentation in creating pigments from foraged natural elements creates a sense of refraction with color and texture. Drawing inspiration from ancient parietal painters who used clay-derived paints to communicate as well as the pioneering female artists of spiritualism, Jorgenson utilizes art as a medium to delve into ephemeral moments of the soul. An interplay between the tangible and the subconscious, her work invites the viewer into a transcendental landscape that evolves with the beauty of attention.

Rebecca Holopter is a multi-hyphenate artist who focuses on ease, joy, and nostalgia. Jealous of her brother's ninja turtle drawings, Rebecca's aunt set her down at a young age and said "it's just practice." With this sentiment, Rebecca continued to practice and study art throughout college. In 2015 she drew and animal a day (maintaining the practice while drinking wine in Italy!) and in 2016 she extended the practice with a watercolor painting a day. Since then she has continued with watercolor adding in other art mediums such as embroidery, acrylic, and pastels to explore skin tones and textures in colorful portraits and the freedom in excessive abstracts. She has taught in different mediums for the past 6 years and encourages her students with the same sentiment that was instilled in her - it's all just practice.

Come to CAMP - an evening full of creativity and connection. At CAMP we reconnect with ourselves and others through art. We move. We make. We loosen up. We imagine. We get inspired. And, most importantly, we do something just for fun. 

CAMP will have an open studio setup with a few different crafts available to choose from every evening. From watercolor, to drawing, to friendship bracelets, to painting rocks and everything in between. We’ll have the supplies (and who knows sometimes live music!) all you have to bring is something to sip on. 

CAMP will be the first Wednesday of each month. Mark your calendars, invite a friend, and kick off each month with our growing community!

Community Class: Upcycling with Embroidery

with Rebecca Holopter

$35

Lets add some flair to an old favorite tee or garment!  In this workshop, we will start with a practice project so students have the chance to learn basic embroidery stitches, and then we will begin embellishing our very own clothes! 

Students are asked to bring a pre-loved tee shirt, sweater, skirt, or pair of pants to embroider. Denim or heavy canvas might be hard on your fingers, so just keep that in mind.

We will have an option to purchase an organic cotton bandana ($6) to embroider if you don’t have anything to bring. Embroidery hoop + needle will be available to purchase ($5) and take home as well!

All other materials will be provided.
