Explore the beauty, mystery, and emotion of the natural world through expressive acrylic painting. Rather than focusing on strict realism, this workshop draws inspiration from landscapes, weather, light, and atmosphere to create paintings that capture a sense of wonder and connection.
Through demonstrations and guided help, students will explore:
• Using color to create mood and emotion
• Building luminous layers with transparent and opaque paint
• Blending skies, clouds, and atmospheric effects
• Adding texture, movement, and abstraction inspired by nature
• Balancing intuition with composition
While paintings may not be fully completed during the workshop, participants will have a strong foundation to continue developing their work afterward.
Previous painting experience is helpful but not required.
Kaitlin Deering is a New Jersey–based multidisciplinary artist whose work explores the intersection of atmosphere, memory, and humanity’s relationship to the natural world. Working primarily in acrylic paint, she creates luminous abstract landscapes and immersive color fields inspired by weather, light, cosmic imagery, and the rhythms of nature. Influenced by both contemporary landscape painting and abstract expressionism, her work invites viewers into spaces of reflection, wonder, and connection. Her paintings are held in private collections throughout the United States.
