Join us as we explore the endless possibilities when using fluid and dry media together to make beautiful art. Through clear interactive tutorial demonstrations, Mike will teach students to use a combination of watercolor, gouache, brushes, pencils, pens and ink to create compelling compositions with subtle and bold textures.  Subject matter will vary.  

Age 15 – Adult

Tuition: $190 Paper Fee: $8

Whether you are a beginning artist or just want to improve your skills, these classes will explore the basis of all art ... drawing!

This series is designed to identify fundamental drawing skills that the participants can take and develop further on their own. Participants can take one or several sessions; each session will introduce a different aspect of drawing, such as gesture, line, shading, proportions, etc.

Subjects will include still life and landscapes. Participants will provide some of their own materials (see supply list); other materials will be provided via the $5 supply fee.

Session 3: A Matter of Perspective.

4/3-4/17

How to create depth in your artwork using linear and atmospheric perspective. Supply list. 

Tuition: $85.50 Supply fee $5

Learn about different pastel supports (types of papers & boards) while exploring a variety of techniques. Dive right in without needing paintbrushes, solvents, or a palette – no other medium allows you to apply rich color to support as quickly as you can with soft pastels. Supplies will be provided via the supply fee. You may bring your own supplies if you have taken the class before, and opt out of the supply fee during registration.
