Abstract Cactus and Color Painting

2:00 PM – 4:00 PM

1501 Woodland Ave, Des Moines, IA

This workshop at Hoyt Sherman Place serves as a lesson in expressive color theory and layering. Participants use acrylics to create soft, wispy abstract backgrounds that allow their cactus subjects to “pop” with vibrant energy. It is an exercise in movement and ethereal blending, teaching students how to build depth through multiple washes of color. Whether you are an experienced painter or a novice, the class provides a supportive environment to explore the intersection of botanical form and abstract art.
