The Abstract Artist In You

Sorry this class is now FULL. Please select another instructor

Fall Art Classes (Monday Evenings): Oct 23 - Nov 20, 2023

In making striking abstract art, there is a lot of personal preferences like how you see beauty, your favorite colors or favorite shape, or what you enjoy doing in life. These are some of the visual elements we will use in discovering the abstract art in you. As a contemporary abstract artist, Joejene believes deeply in everyone's core that there is already a beautiful image of who we are. We just have to trust our instinct, follow our intuition without fear, and feel and enjoy the ride in every single moment of art-making. The revelation will be magical! This art class will also cover the basic principles of design and the basic color theory to help students make a harmonious pictorial composition. In this class, students will be using acrylic and mixed media on canvas and all materials will be provided. Target output is 2-3 standard-size canvases at the end of five week session of classes.

Dynamic Figure Drawing

Fall Art Classes (Monday Evenings): Oct 23 - Nov 20, 2023

Working with a live model and photo references, we’ll explore how to capture the shape and movement of the human figure in graphite, charcoal and pastel. The course will cover the fundamentals of drawing intuitively from observation (gesture, mark making, and creating form with light and shadow) with the aim of developing an innate sensitivity of line and tone. Emphasis will be placed on pushing boundaries and exploring new ways of seeing.
