Dream with your eyes wide open: Creating visionary art
Instructor: Peggy Reavey
www.peggyreavey.com
This class is about painting what no one has ever seen. For example, what does your soul look like?
Prompted by memory, storytelling, dreams, free-association, and the intuitive response to the process itself, students use a variety of media to create images from their personal vision.
No previous training necessary.
You know more than you think you know.
Introductory materials provided by instructor.
5 sessions: $180.00
6-student limit.
Angels Gate Cultural Center, 3601 South Gaffey Street, Studio D8
San Pedro, CA 90731
To register, call 310-346-9491 or email
Peggy Reavey has shown extensively in Southern California and as far away as
Philadelphia PA, where critic, R.B. Straus wrote: "Reavey carves out a personalized mythography that relates feminism, a mystic modality, and the pressure of the modern world.
These paintings could well be icons on some temple wall, or illustrations from some holy text yet to be written."
