Sketchbooks are an important artist's tool and wonderful place to express yourself visually. In this class we will combine foundational skills like life-drawing with expressive experiments like collage and even fan art. Whether you like painting, animation, or just love doodling in your notebooks, a sketchbook is a wonderful way to form good artistic habits and improve your work. Bring pencils, pens, and an open mind to try something new!

Sketchbooks and core materials will be provided by the Center. Students are welcome to bring any additional or preferred art materials they enjoy working with.

You’ll get step-by-step guidance to master the basics. Already have experience? We’ll help you refine your techniques, tackle complex forms, and experiment with bold ideas.

After a harsh winter, it’s time to welcome spring and the succession of flowers that bloom on trees and emerge from the ground. The wonderful aspect of painting flowers is that they won’t wilt or go to seed. In this workshop you’ll learn how to plan ahead, paint with courage, and know when to put your brush down. Overworking is more detrimental to flowers than Japanese beetles. Discover the art of brushstroke, balancing water-to-pigment ratios, color mixing, understanding pigment behavior, painting around the whites, and effectively managing the background. Novice - advanced.

Learn to capture the essence of the pose by sketching quickly and painting just a little slower. Working with a clothed model, we’ll warm up with gesture drawings, then paint short poses with one color for the shadow. Eventually, we will paint a longer pose exploring how light interacts with the figure, revealing its form and details. We’ll let colors blend where the values are the same. I will try to channel what I learned from two masters, Mel Stabin and Charles Reid. Their figures were full of light and life.
