Abstracted Landscape Course

"I love creating landscapes and with my abstracted landscape course, I want to share this passion. You will  use fluid art in an advanced way and learn to ‘pour with intention’. I will teach you to combine the wonderful paint effects you can achieve with fluid art into an abstracted landscape."
