Over The Rainbow: A Pride Painting Series

June 9th, 16th, 23rd, 30th

You’re queer? You’re here. In this painting series, we are taking the rainbow back from corporations with your own artistic celebration of what pride looks like to you. Taught by your favorite lesbian art teacher and open to all!

So, here’s the gay agenda:

Week One is an Andy Warhol inspired painting with print making. Imagine your favorite gay icon, actor, artist, plant, critter, or something even gayer in the style of the legend of pop art.

Up next, we’ll tackle Van Gogh’s Starry Night but make it gay of course. Using the colors of the rainbow or the pride flag you identify with, you’ll create you own beautiful galaxies full of texture and life inspired by the post-impressionist artist.

Gays love nature, so Week Three we will paint flowers inspired by the floral work of modernist artist Georgia O’Keefe. Did you know about her and Frida Kahlo? Historians will say they were really good friends.

Lastly, everyone body say love! We’ll take it all home with a ‘What Pride Means To You’ self portrait. This one is inspired by you, the queer artists of our generation.

A queer space is an inclusive space, allies are more than welcome. Everyone will leave with four unique works of art from four individual art movements. What are you waiting for?

• Please note that we may take photos during the workshop to use on social media. If you do wish to be photographed, please let the teacher know when you arrive.

• If you are sick, please stay home. Call or email to let us know that you are not coming.

• Last minute cancellations are extremely challenging for our guest teachers. Often times, materials have been purchased and meticulously prepared ahead of time. Keep in mind that late cancellations are a financial burden on these very special artists.

A foodie at heart, combined with her love of color, Jordan Jimenez developed her strength as an artist through expressive studies of still life's, florals, and portraits. She is best known for her vibrant still life's subjects of desserts and flowers. Jordan continues to study under California landscape Painter, Ann Bridges, and teaches art to children and adults in the greater LA area. Her work has been exhibited in group galleries across Los Angeles and Long Beach. Jordan spends her time painting, writing, and cooking what she found that week at the farmer's market.
