PowerPoint and Paint – An Intuitive Artist’s Guide to Naïve or Raw Art
This class is based on the PowerPoint Presentation I gave on the above subject last year for the Art for Lunch – Delicious Details program by Kate Stockman.
What you get with this class is an intro to Abstract Art via a 15-minute PowerPoint presentation on my journey as an abstract artist. Once the presentation closes, I will take a few questions before we set about to create your own 5 x 7 piece of abstract art choosing one of the styles in the presentation. We will be using paint markers and acrylic paint, along with some additives.
Supplies will be furnished.
Come ready to paint, i.e. wear old clothes or an apron, latex gloves if preferred (we may be using our fingers to paint, who knows?)

Artists Bio:
Patti Beckert is an emerging artist living in Fletcher, NC with her husband and two young Chihuahuas. Shortly after moving to Fletcher in 2018, Patti became a member of the Art League of Henderson County. She continues to exhibit her art at its many events during the year. In addition to painting, Patti also creates whimsical and inspirational drawings and comics. Her comic strip “Quick on the Draw” can be seen monthly in the Arts and Culture Magazine. In 2023, her abstract art was featured on an ArtScape banner in downtown Hendersonville.

“For me, the magic lies in taking a blank canvas or piece of paper and beginning to lay down marks. I have no preconceived notions of what will eventually develop, but when I see it, I know it. Add to that my love of vibrant colors chosen carefully for each painting, and the art becomes uniquely mine.”
Patti is an intuitive artist whose imagination knows no bounds.
