Adults
Our 6 or 8 week Fall Semester for adults starts on Saturday, October 5.
There's a class here for you, no matter what your experience. Some of
our students can't remember the last time they explored their "artistic
side". Others are quite far along in their artistic ventures.
We go out of our way to make you feel comfortable in developing that part
of you that wants to be creative.
Adult classes are for students aged 17+.

Have you been thinking of taking an art course
but have little or no experience? This drawing course is for you. You will learn to
see as an artist sees, strengthening your skills of drawing and expression, using
a variety of drawing techniques. You will develop the illusion of 3-dimensional
form and space, observing the qualities of light and shading in the still life,
and work with creative exercises to broaden your experience. With individual
instruction and gentle group critiques, you will develop your awareness of
composition through the use of elements and principles of art.
Instructor: Sally Caswell or Mary Ann Rossoni 8 weeks (20 hours)

Drawing the Figure (Beginning and Intermediate)
for Adults
Monday Mornings, 10:00 am - 12:30 pm
or Thursdays, 2:00 - 4:30 pm
Starts Monday, October 7 or Thursday, October 10.
Drawing is the foundation for all 2 and 3 dimensional creative works.
In this drawing session you will strengthen your foundational skills
through a variety of methods including exploring mark making
with charcoal, enriching your eye-hand coordination through
observational drawing of the figure, and group discussions/
critique of work done in and outside of class.
Working from the figure is a unique experience, as the act of observation is a fleeting
one. There is only time to capture and record the most important
elements and because of this, a drawing can become a journal of
decisions of deemed importance. There is an honesty that emerges
from these decisions. A short materials list will be provided to help
in your exploration.
