SUMMARY:“Stealing Like an Artist” Painting Workshop with Marlene Lowden
DESCRIPTION:If you’re ready to get your hands seriously messy\, join me for a two-day painting extravaganza inspired by the idea that great artists gather\, remix\, and make it their own. Across these two days\, we’ll play\, experiment\, and make art that’s all yours\, inspired by sparks you find in other artists’ work. And yes\, we’ll be guided by David Bowie’s glorious wisdom: “The only art I’ll ever study is the stuff that I can steal from.” \nThis workshop is best for folks who have some painting experience (or who joined me for the previous weekend) —you don’t need to be a pro\, just comfy enough with your materials to dive in and explore.

SUMMARY:“Exploring the Foundations” A Playful Introduction to Painting
DESCRIPTION:If you’ve been wanting to begin (or rekindle) your painting journey\, join me\, Marlene Lowden\, for a gentle\, joy-filled 2 day workshop designed for beginners and anyone craving a brush-up. Together we’ll dive into experimentation\, explore mark-making\, and uncover the 7 elements of design—those essential building blocks that support every painting you’ll ever make. We’ll play with colour\, shape\, line\, value\, texture\, and form in ways that are accessible\, supportive\, and fun. Most of the exercises are rooted in my abstract painting practice\, but this workshop is open to those who prefer more object-based work; we are simply building your creative toolbox.
