We encountered strangeness and difference at every turn\, but the sunlight\, sky\, and green nature of the subtropical culture always gave me warm inspiration. I have lived in South Florida for a decade now compressing and symbolizing this into color-rich cubes representing home\, the strangeness of being different from my native country\, and the process of adapting. Gradually\, I developed a series of portraits exploring the signifiers of human nature. Humanoid figures are portrayed as children’s dolls with exaggerated heads and smaller torsos and are centered and anchored as if trying to root themselves into the frame. They reflect child-like vulnerability where the feelings of dread\, loneliness\, and weakness to the familiar/unfamiliar world are present. Dimensional crystalline shapes simultaneously create and break the form; symbolizing complex units that both comprise and undermine identity. Color is bold and convincing\, resembling that of nationality\, yet it doesn’t reveal the true origin of the figure. In this process of seeing and feeling all my surrounding environments\, large puzzles are put together one by one\, and these experiences are fused and harmonized in one complete work. \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n** Please note\, Refunds will be processed only if requested 72+ hours prior to scheduled workshop date/time. No refund will be given if requested less than seventy two (72) hours until scheduled workshop time for any reason.

SUMMARY:Sculpted Acrylic Painting 2-Day
DESCRIPTION:This session has been canceled.\n\n\n*Please don’t wait to register! Workshops that do not meet the minimum number of students 3 days prior to the session date will be canceled or rescheduled. Signing up early helps us ensure that the workshop can take place. Thank you! \nNEW! Sculpted Acrylic Painting – A Two-Day Workshop \nAugust 14 & 15 – 10:30am – 1:30pm (No makeup dates) \nEver wonder how to create paintings with real volume and texture? In this hands-on workshop\, you’ll shape and carve with molding paste and a palette knife directly on your canvas. Then the next day\, you’ll bring the surface to life with acrylic color\, allowing pigment to settle into the ridges and valleys to bring out depth and movement. Through guided demonstrations and individual instruction\, you’ll explore color mixing and the interplay of light across the raised and recessed areas. Both beginners and experienced painters\, welcome. \nSupply List*: \n• Canvas — minimum 16″ × 20″\, maximum 36″ × 36″ (pre-gesso preferred) \n• Acrylic paints — 4–5 colors plus black. Optional: fluorescent\, neon\, or metallic colors \n• Molding paste — 16 oz container \n• Palette paper for mixing paint \n• Palette knife and at least one kitchen utensil: fork\, potato masher\, grater\, etc \n• Brushes — preferably filberts \n*Students must provide their own materials \nArt websites: Jerrysartarama.com\, blick.com\, Utrecht.com\, amazon.com \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nInstructor Information: \nFran Mann Goodman \nI am an abstract expressionist painter and educator whose work explores movement\, texture\, and emotional expression through layered surfaces and vibrant color. My paintings have been exhibited in more than fifty gallery exhibitions and are held in private collections internationally\, including those of prominent Hollywood collectors. \nI received my formal training in fine art at the Chouinard Art Institute in Los Angeles\, where I developed a disciplined studio practice and a strong understanding of visual language. Years later\, after recovering from Lyme disease\, I returned fully to painting and continued my studies through master classes with renowned abstract expressionist Larry Poons at the Art Students League of New York. \nBefore returning to my studio practice\, I spent more than thirty years in the beauty industry\, teaching women to approach makeup as an expressive art form. Through workshops and self-development programs across the United States and Canada\, I explored identity and self-representation through the face. This work received national media attention\, including appearances on television talk shows and features in major women’s magazines and The New York Times. \nTeaching is central to my professional life. For more than twelve years I have taught a program I developed\, Not Your Ordinary Painting Class\, offered both online and in person. The program blends art history with techniques in abstract expressionism and is designed for both beginners and experienced painters\, encouraging freedom of expression through color\, texture\, and layered surfaces. In addition to my ongoing classes\, I lead hands-on painting workshops that explore a variety of experimental applications\, including sculpted painting surfaces\, acrylic skins\, and collage materials such as paper towels. I have also published articles on these techniques and have been featured in Delray Magazine and Boca Magazine.
