Push your painting to the next level and explore the intersection of painting and sculpture. This class is a crash course in stretching canvas three-dimensionally and treating painting as a sculptural form. You learn to design the core structure of the form and build it from wood. Working with raw canvas you'll learn different techniques of stretching canvas on a three-dimensional form. Finally, you'll apply paint to the structure while paying close attention to the surface and structure of the form.
