DATE:
TIME:
12:30 pm – 2:30 pm
Teacher:
Samara Caughey

Explore artworks from the exhibition Maven of Modernism: Galka Scheyer in California with artist Samara Caughey. Students focus on color, line and gestural marks and discuss the power of expression in the paintings—what this might mean to either a maker or a viewer. Taking a cue from the Blue Four artists—Lyonel Feininger, Paul Klee, Alexei Jawlensky and Vasily Kandinsky—students create gestural and abstract watercolor paintings that are spontaneous and intuitive.
