In this Asia North event, artist Thea Canlas will guide participants through painting a still life as part of her series of works titled "Still Life: Longing", on view in this year's Asia North exhibition, EXCEEDS EXPECTATIONS, curated by Phaan Howng. Thea's piece, “Still Life: Longing,” is a series of installations of locally sourced Pilipino foods as an homage to the immigrant experience of searching for home (or close enough to home) in unfamiliar terrain.

Participants will be guided through painting a still life created by the artist, using acrylic paint on canvas and your choice of either a glass or bottle of wine. No experience necessary—this is a beginner-friendly class! Tickets can be purchased at the Motor House website:
