- Color Field Pour 🎨
Cold weather has us indoors, and after last week’s wool felt canvas session, we decided to keep the creative streak going.
This week, we took inspiration from artist Helen Frankenthaler, who shook up the art world in 1952 by pouring thinned paint directly onto raw canvas to create Mountains and Sea. Her approach opened the door for a whole new way of making art, proving that you do not always need a paintbrush to make something powerful.
Naturally, we had to test the theory.
In this hands-on session, residents experimented with Frankenthaler’s soak-stain technique themselves, exploring movement, color, and a little unpredictability along the way. The results were bold, expressive, and completely one of a kind.
Winter might be keeping us indoors, but it has not slowed down our creative momentum.
