The Neurographic Art painting workshop guides its participants through a short meditation and an immersion into the right side of their brain, enabling them to relax deeply while creating an abstract painting using a variety of media.

This technique is a favorite of the facilitator, retired art teacher, fine art photographer and independent filmmaker, Lydia A. Douglas.

Using watercolor paint, crayon, pencil and marker, participants will learn and explore fundamental techniques shading, cross hatching and how to create light and shadow, to-name-a-few. Participants will come away with a 2-dimentional small work ready to be framed.

The workshop provides an opportunity to let go of the chaos, stress, and concerns of the outside world for this 120-minute block.  All materials will be provided.

This event is free and open to the public. The workshop is intergenerational and children under 13 years old must be accompanied by an adult. Participants must register in advance by calling (203) 734-2513 or emailing Susan Quincy at susan.quincy@ct.gov.
