Livingston Arts Association is proud to present Evan Stuart Marshall who will demonstrate “Creating a Mixed-Media Abstract Painting” on Sunday, November 5, 2023, from 2 to 4 p.m., at the Senior/Community Center, 204 Hillside Avenue, Livingston, NJ.

Evan will share principles he teaches in his Mixed-Media Abstracts class (sponsored by Livingston Arts Association) by creating a painting in real time. Topics he will cover include working with classic compositions, selecting a color palette, materials and tools, sources of inspiration, incorporating collage elements and found objects, balance and values, mark making, paint additives, stamping and stenciling, and finding your individual style. Evan will invite members of the audience to demonstrate certain techniques. He will also provide a number of information sheets to attendees. At the end of the demonstration there will be a brief question-and-answer session.
