“Spend a week immersed in observing and capturing the natural landscape. In this three-part workshop series, students will explore sketching and composition, plein-air painting, and close studies of trees and botanicals while working from life outdoors.
Each class will begin in the classroom for a brief class demonstration, then we will go outside to paint or draw from nature.”
Students may register for individual workshops, or take the full series for a more in-depth experience. (discounted price for registering for all 3)
Monday, July 13th, 9:30 AM - 1:30 PM: will focus on “Landscape Drawing & Sketching”, where students will learn how to simplify and compose the landscape through observational studies made with a simple pencil and paper. The goal will be understanding the scene through sketches, rather than fully finished pieces.
Wednesday, July 15th 9:30 AM - 1:30 PM: “Painting The Landscape From Life”, will focus on the fundamentals of painting the landscape from life. The goal will be to capture a scene in oil paint while working directly from nature, conveying color, depth, and atmosphere.
Friday July 17th 9:30 AM - 1:30 PM:“Trees & Botanical Studies”, will take a closer look at the forms, textures, and structures found in nature. We will create a painting focusing on individual subjects (Trees, Flowers, Bushes, etc) rather than a larger scene.
Open to both beginners and experienced artists alike.
Materials list for all three workshops is below. But if you want materials provided for you, you can rent materials for an additional rental fee of $10.
Level: All skill levels
Learn the secrets to drawing Portraits & Faces. Open to beginner and advanced students alike, this workshop will walk you through the process of drawing faces from start to finish working from a photo. We will begin my learning how to map out proportions and face-type to capture the likeness of your subject; we will study the planes of the face as we explore form and shading; finally, we will gain an introduction to facial anatomy to gain some insight into the structure of the human face and features.
Students have the option to work from a photo reference of their own choosing, or one provided by the studio. If you have taken this workshop in the past, repeat students are welcome!
This workshop will happen on Saturday, August 22nd, from 9:30 AM - 4:30 PM (lunch break in between.)
Students may either bring a lunch or buy a lunch at one of the many restaurants nearby.
Materials list attached below. Materials may be provided for the students at an extra fee.
