Brush Hour: Making Motif
Suneeva Saldanha
$74
Making Motif introduces participants to creating motifs by observing and simplifying natural forms. Using native flowers as our primary subject, we will explore their underlying structures and learn to break down complex organic shapes into basic geometric elements.
Through guided exercises, participants will explore symmetry, repetition, proportion, and balance while transforming botanical observation into stylized floral motifs.
By the end of the session, we will have created exploratory sketches and original floral motif that can be further developed into patterns and decorative artwork. No prior drawing experience is required.
