Summer Art

Time to register for those Summer Workshops! Registration is open for Common Ground on the Hill, held at #McDaniel #College in #Westminster, #Maryland. It has gotten so popular that additional classes and an extra week have been added on for you to attend.

I will be teaching two workshops this July. Week one is July 2nd to 9th, Art of Nature. It will introduce and review techniques with charcoal, pastels and some mixed mediums. We will work from life and from photo references. The art of nature, covers a lot of material and is geared for all levels. Week two is July 9th to 13th: Art of the Bird. This class offers more technical information, some knowledge of drawing and pastels is helpful. We will again have live raptors in the classroom. Drawing from falcons, owls, hawks and or eagles. Students will have opportunities to take photos of the birds but the focus will be on drawing from life. Photo reference will be used the remainder of the week to create finished works.

Both classes will have an art exhibit on the last day of classes. Art reception Friday evenings, July 9th and July 13th from 5:30 - 7:30.
