Work with your favorite medium or pick a new one to learn such as charcoal, pastels, oil, acrylic or watercolor.  If you are new to art, drawing is always a great place to begin.  You can work on one painting all semester or start a new one every week – the choice is yours.  All abilities welcome!

This studio course is for students with previous experience that are ready to progress towards the next level which is to consider an exhibition quality body of work. Unlike basic classes which rely on assignments furnished by the instructor, students in this class will be encouraged by the instructor to generate ideas and create  individual projects of their own design. In a supportive environment complemented by demonstrations, individual and group critiques and relevant slide lectures students will be motivated to focus on developing their own personal style and two dimensional voice. Students should bring their favorite materials and their ideas to the first class. An additional models fee may be required for students with an interest in the human figure.
