The Way of Intuitive Art: Finding with Alisa Clark Meaning Through Making

The Way of Intuitive Art: Finding Meaning Through Making

October 3

1 pm til 4 pm

 This hands-on, three-hour workshop invites participants to explore art-making through intuition rather than instruction. Guided by mixed-media artist Alisa E. Clark, you’ll experiment with materials, marks, and layers while learning to trust process, play, and personal response. No prior art experience is required—this workshop is about letting go of expectations, listening closely, and discovering what emerges when you create from the inside out. Participants may or may not leave with a finished piece—and that’s completely okay. This workshop emphasizes experience over outcome, offering starting points, new ways of working, and moments of discovery. The true takeaway is a deeper connection to your creative voice, along with insights and approaches you can continue exploring long after the workshop ends.

 

*Students should bring a journal or sketchbook, basic paintbrushes, and texture/mark-making materials (string,sandpaper shapes, leaves, fabric scrapes and etc).
