Class: Spontaneous Inventive Symmetry
Next Class begins Jan 8th
Jill Voelker is the mastermind behind Psycho-Symmetry – a spontaneous, inventive approach to symmetry that yields beautifully intricate visual art. Through her novel approach, each student is able to create moving, elaborate compositions, regardless of one’s expertise.
Jill helps students develop their own individual technique, in the moment. This exploration is part art and part personal psychology. Drawing is done freehand, one mark at a time, using shapes and forms in a decidedly symmetric pattern.
Each student explores balance, harmony and proportion. Forms are mirrored, flipped or otherwise arranged. The more complex the forms, the more interesting the art becomes. Each design is further enhanced as color is applied. Symmetric patterns vary dramatically depending on the color application. The overall work is done when the student is pleased with the results.
