    In this class you will learn how to paint with soft pastels without having to purchase expensive materials and supplies.  We will cover all related topics, such as drawing, composition, color wheel basics, mixing colors and much more as we work. This class is suitable for beginners and intermediate level students. We will start with simple sketches to learn how to apply pastels and progress to more complex paintings. 

    Each student will be provided with a professional pastel paper and a limited palette of hard and soft pastels during class. You are welcome to bring your own supplies that you are comfortable working with. We will work on some projects together, using the instructor’s references, and on individual projects of your choice based on your own interest in a subject matter. I will help you every step on the way. The objective for this class is that each student enjoys creativity and self-expression and develops his or her own style.  

    The class is offered on Thursday mornings, the cost of the class includes 3 (three) 2-hour classes. If you miss the class, please request a make-up lesson, there will be no refunds for missed classes.  Make-up classes are usually offered on Fridays.

    Artist Trading Card (ATC) Workshop

     

    When:   Saturday,  January 11th  2-6 pm.

    What are artist trading cards?
    Artist trading cards (ATCs) are miniature pieces of art that are traded around the world. Artists create, trade and collect art at organized "swap" events, either in person or online. The only official rule for ATCs is the size: 2.5" x 3.5".

    How did the movement start?
    In 1997, M. Vanci Stirnemann, a Swiss artist, created 1200 cards by hand as part of an exhibit. On the last day, he invited others to create their own cards and trade with him during the closing reception. The movement took off, and today, there are ATC swaps in almost every major city around the world. There are also many online swaps.

    How do I create ATCs?
    Most swaps are open to any media, materials or techniques as long as the card fits into a standard trading card sleeve. ATCs are traded, not sold.
