In this workshop, Dana Haigh will introduce the Alcohol Inks medium to create paintings of free flow of expressions. Alcohol inks are fast-drying and highly pigmented. They flow freely over any non-porous surface and have a mind on their own, allowing for a liberating approach to art and unexpected, spontaneous results. If you are open to just having fun and “going with the flow”, this is the medium for you to explore.
Class $40 | Material Fee $35
Based out of Groton Massachusetts, Dana has been creating Art for over 30 years. She recently discovered a love affair with watercolor, a growing fondness for acrylics, and a passion for alcohol inks; the delicate florals and abstract fluidity she creates evoke the beauty of nature, while the silhouettes present in her work represent the human connection to the natural world.
Dana divided her childhood between New England and France; this early exposure to galleries and museums across Europe has influenced her love of Art and its history. Although her early degree and career in Art History lead to working with other’s art rather than her own, she never lost the drive to create. Today, Dana’s primary job is being a mom to her three children. Creating art while being a mom can be challenging, but Dana hopes to set an example by following her passion; her young artists are understanding and often encouraging of her art obsession.
Dana's award-winning art has been featured at several gallery shows, both local and regional, and can be found in many private collections.
