DRAWING FOUNDATIONS; LEARNING TO SEE
Wednesdays 9 - noon
Beginners


Fall in love with drawing. You will learn to see like an artist. I introduce the elements and principles of design and visual perception. You will learn about line, value, perspective and composition. This class is designed to change the way you look at the world and at art. Great music - very meditative.


2.32
SEEING - KNOWING - DRAWING
Intermediate - Advanced
Wednesdays 12:30 - 3:30


This class will stress principles (how we manipulate the elements) of drawing. You will create finished pieces and may also work on your personal projects. We will experiment with materials and push the renderings into polished finished artwork. Learn to evaluate your work through regular critiques.


3.28
LIFE DRAWING
Beginning - Advanced
Thursdays 12:30 - 3:30


Learn and practice drawing the nude figure. Each class will have a handout on anatomy, gesture or style. I have been studying Robert Beverly Hale's lectures. He encourages you to, "become aware of the anatomical forms in terms of the elements and principles of drawing and composition. In other words, what to do with them." Each student will receive individual attention.


3.25 
ALL - MEDIA PAINTING
Beginning - Intermediate
Friday 9 - 12:30


Learn color, technique and composition through weekly demos, critiques and handouts. Learn from other artists projects. I will set up a still life or work from your own reference material. 


3.26
ALL - MEDIA PAINTING
Intermediate - Advanced
Friday 12:30 - 3:30


Individual and group instruction in composition, color choices and techniques. You will be challenged and encouraged to develop your unique artistic voice. 




VERY COOL ARTISTS OF THE WEEK!

SINGAPORE BIENNALE 2016

Lucky me. I arrived in Singapore to find their Biennale in the Singapore Art Museum and other Museums and institutions around town. It has been a great introduction to the Southeast Asian geography and culture. Many visits have pulled me out of an extreme state of jet lag and whetted my appetite to learn more about Southeast Asia. Singapore Biennale AN ATLAS OF MIRRORS - AT ONCE, MANY WORLDS "In charting our way around the world, humankind has relied on instruments of vision as well as navigation. Atlases map and mirror our journeys of discovery and often make visible more than just physical terrain; driven by our needs and desires, they embolden us to venture into the unknown. From our coordinates in Southeast Asia, the arc of our shared histories encompasses East and South Asia. These regions bear the imprints of one another's diverse cultures, even as boundaries are also constantly reimagined. Fraught and unstable, these borders are characterized by fluid mo...

"The important thing is to remember what most impressed you and to put it on canvas as fast as possible." Pierre Bonnard

Astrid - beautiful inside and out! Charcoal on Fabriano Artistico Those of you that attended the Steven Assael Workshops at the Boca Museum School know of his practice to clip his palette next to his painting for a seamless evaluation of color.  Look at this cool product by David Jon Kassan. The parallel palette comes in two sizes. Check this out! David Jon Kassan Beautiful blended skin tone palette. His technique differs from the full palette of Steven Assael. Different results, both exquisite.  Check out his sketchbook live videos. Be prepared to learn from this man. I just realized he is having a week long workshop in Civita Italy - one week painting from a nude model. I am finishing some of my life drawings and will be posting them on facebook and this blog.  Is anyone interested in small classes at my studio? My ideas are open and limited to up to 5 - 6 students. Cost will depend on demand and model fees. Life drawing with ...
