Find Your Artistic Voice – (All 2-D Mediums Welcome)
Friday, 12:00 pm
October 24 – November 14 | Ages 16-99+

in ,

You’ve heard about this before, but how do you get there? How does one ‘find one’s voice?’

The class will focus on identifying students’ individual proclivities in art making, then emphasizing those in the work at hand. Mark making, drawing, composition, color, material handling, and intent will be addressed. Every artist has a ‘signature’ in their work; this class will help you discover yours.  Individual attention with each student in a shared studio is the focus.

All ages and skill levels welcomed! (There will be a group critique to conclude the class.)

“…Throw your heart into the picture, and then jump in after it…” ~Howard Pyle

Art stores to get WN gouache, Holbein or Daniel Smith: Suders, Plaza or online stores for the deals and sets. Plaza says they can order Holbein sets if you call them and it is on their website.

You can get a primary set with red, yellow, blue and white, but I suggest buying the colors you use regularly in your palette, but it is expensive. So at least : Primary colors,  Permanent white, black (prefer Indigo instead of black) burnt sienna, and ultramarine blue.
