STAA is thrilled to have Zona Wainwright back for her Abstract Mixed-Media Workshop! In this two-day workshop, students will explore the theories and techniques of larger scale abstract painting and investigate composition using the formal elements and principles of design. Each student will develop their personal expression and find their natural “mark” while further exploring the process of abstract art. Exercises may include blind contour drawing, spontaneous line drawings, observational painting, and composition investigation. Zona hopes to provide her students with the tools to explore new concepts, develop a creative voice, and build confidence as artists!
The full price of this course is $400. Students will pay an initial reservation fee of $200 at this time. The remaining $200 is due a the start of the course.
Limited availability, so sign up today!
Students are responsible for most supplies.

ABOUT ZONA
An endless melting and blending of natural colors into undefined forms that please the eye and tantalize the viewer's ability at interpretation, Zona Wainwright's work concentrates on the abstract.
"My thirst for training and education has culminated in my progression to that of instructor of abstract art at the New Orleans Academy of Fine Arts. However, I continue to seek exposure to diverse styles and methodology by wearing two hats, that of instructor and that of student. I continue to expand my appreciation for the arts by balancing knowledge already gained with exposure to the talents of my peers."
Zona Wainwright is a life-long resident of the New Orleans area and began her painting career relatively later in life. She made up for the lost time, however, by extensive study at the New Orleans Academy of Fine Arts, at several other local art institutions, training workshops and seminars, both locally and nationally.
Concentrating on abstract painting, she has refined her art to mirror patterns in architecture and nature with a seemingly endless blending of natural colors into undefined forms, leaving any definitive description of what is viewed to the imagination. She has exhibited in several local galleries and venues.
