In this class, you will learn how to apply paint onto a Gelli plate, create masks and stamps, incorporate stencils and foliage, build up multiple layers, and learn to transfer magazine images. The resulting monoprints will then be incorporated into designed compositions on heavy paper. Materials: All materials are provided with the fee paid to the instructor. They include Gelli plate; brayer; Golden OPEN acrylic paints; regular acrylic paints; stencils; stamps; textures; a variety of papers for use during the class. Max students: 8

Event Description

In this class the face is the focus. Using different techniques and mediums, we will find fun ways to approach an often daunting subject. Students will be encouraged to bring photos of family, friends—even pets. We will discuss the best kinds of photos to use and how to use the ones you have even if they aren’t the best quality. There will be a model for one session, and we will try self-portraiture. This is an interesting way to improve your skills, find some new ones, and have fun while you’re at it. Materials: A 9” x 12” pad of mixed-media paper; soft vine charcoal (willow is the best); woodless graphite pencil 6B, 8B, or 9B (the higher the number the better); pencil sharpener; kneaded eraser. Other materials will be discussed in class, and the instructor will bring some supplies for students to try and share. Max students: 12

Event Description

Working with a life model, students will learn to identify and depict the core “gesture” of any pose. Emphasis is on short poses, with the goal of increasing our ability to capture the body in motion. By focusing on the “verb” of the pose, and not the “noun,” we will explore the storytelling potential of the figure. This is an excellent class for those interested in animation and the entertainment arts or for anyone looking to inject more dynamism into their life-drawing practice. This class is for all skill levels. Materials: Newsprint pad, 18” x 24”; compressed charcoal pencils, grease pencil. Other materials are possible with instructor consultation. Max students: 12
