Struggling to get a cohesive body of work off the ground? Discover how you can let it build itself, organically and intuitively, through an inspirational process of working in series. Exercise your creativity in expansive and unexpected ways as you learn how working on a series can foster a deeper, richer engagement with your subject. Embrace experimentation and potentially launch an authentic, personal body of work that feels uniquely yours. Leave with fresh sketches and a blueprint for maintaining the purpose and passion needed to achieve greater visibility, gallery representation and sales, reviews and publications, and other career goals. Appropriate for intermediate painters and adventurous beginners alike.
