In this workshop, hosted in collaboration with the Missouri Botanical Garden (MOBOT), participants will create paintings inspired by tours of both Shara Hughes: On Edge at CAM and plant life at MOBOT. St. Louis-based artist Luisa Otero Prada will guide participants to connect with their own experiences, feelings, thoughts, and memories to create an intuition-based painting.
