Marc Chagall Inspired Acrylic Painting
Saturday, September 3rd, 2020 10;30AM – 3 PM led by Zoya Scholis
COURSE DECRIPTION
Marc Chagall (July, 1887-1985) arguably the most romantic of the modernists made compositions filled with flying imagery, whimsy and religion. He famously said: “If I create from the heart, nearly everything works; if from the head, almost nothing.” Join us as we get out of our heads and into our hearts for inspiration and whimsy, led by Master Chagall’s example.
