Open up a world of color through the medium of soft pastels!
Do you love playing with color, but sometimes find it challenging to get the results you want? In this workshop, learn how to make color theory work for you through the unique medium of soft pastels.
Because pastels don’t require pre-mixing or drying time, they are ideal for trying new things and exploring the rainbow. Learn creative pastel techniques while building your color knowledge in ways that are fun, approachable, and practical.
We'll cover techniques for achieving lifelike, naturalistic color, and then experiment with ways to push color in bold, expressive directions. In the end, you’ll have a solid foundation for making confident color decisions in your work—whether you continue in pastels or apply what you learn to other mediums.
You'll do exploratory drawing exercises, work from still life materials (provided) and your own photo references, and draw a live model.
Open to all levels. Some drawing and/or painting experience is useful, but not required. Supplies required.
Class size is limited to 12 students.

Solvent-Free Oil Painting

Saturday, October 17th
10am - 4pm (lunch 12-1)
$95 - Supplies not included
$105 - Starter supplies included
This workshop will explore safe practices and helpful strategies for at-home oil painters without access to a separate studio or adequate ventilation for solvent use. This is NOT a class on water-soluble oils: this is a course exploring how to use regular oil paints without the solvents that many contemporary painters rely on, and how to make the most of an oil painting practice in a home setting. In the first half of the class, we will discuss the major questions and challenges of solvent-free painting: under-painting, managing drying times, cleaning brushes, and choosing mediums. We will also discuss other safety concerns beyond solvents, and strategies for setting up a comfortable and successful home painting practice in your living room. In the second half of the class (after a 90 minute lunch break), we will have a model, and students will make an alla prima painting using some of the strategies discussed in the morning and will have the opportunity to ask questions and receive feedback as they try these methods. This is a good class for students wanting to get started with oil painting, but equally useful for those with an established practice who want to remove solvents or learn more about solvent-free methods.
Class size is limited to 12 students.

Instructor: Philip Salamone (@philipsalamone)
3 days
July 20, 21, and 22nd
9:00 am - 4:00 pm (lunch 12:00 - 1:00)
This workshop, aimed at people looking for a foundation in representational drawing, gives students the tools to build and strengthen their observational skills in order to make drawings that are convincing and true to life. Using a step-by-step process, participants will discover a number of principles to help see, interpret, and express the world around them. Demonstrations, slideshows, and personalized critiques guide students through each stage of the process. This workshop will be a good introduction for students without much experience, but it also has a lot to offer for experienced artists who are looking to strengthen their observational and drawing skills. All ages, including teens, are welcome to join.
