TVAA Presents ARTWORKS 2015…Classes And Workshops

This three-day basic oil painting workshop will be taught using a still life as the subject matter. The course will emphasize canvas preparation, usage of materials, drawing, color mixture, composition, value, intensity of color and application of pigment. Each of the three sessions will begin with a demonstration done in the alla prima technique using a limited palette (three primary colors and white). Following the demonstrations students will create their own successful paintings working from a still life. Carpenter will offer individual constructive critique and instruction throughout the workshop.

Fabricate your own artistic assemblage in this inspired and creative workshop. No prior experience necessary. This class is for both seasoned and budding adult artists. Supplies are included but bring any personal items (photos, mementos, postcards, etc.) that you may incorporate into your artwork. Learn essential techniques and the history of both assemblage and altered art forms. Suggested reading: Crafting Personal Shrines by Carol Owen.
