Location: The comfort of your home!
Tuition: $10 per session, or $35 for a four-class pass.
As the Arts Center studio remains closed, and we continue to socially distance during this season, our watercolor instructor Becky is bringing this popular class to a digital platform!  Whether you have been attending this friendly group in the past, or you are totally new to this, if you have some watercolor paints and some paper at home, join in!  What a great way to spend this time  in creative learning and community!  Class will be entirely online, via the online conferencing platform–Zoom. When you sign up, you will be emailed a link to join the class.   You can participate on a computer, tablet, or smartphone.  
Learn the basics or work on developing what you already know in this weekly class. Each week is a stand-alone lesson, so sign up for one session or plan on attending each week to build your skills.  The lessons Becky shares each week will help beginners learn the basics, while engaging intermediate painters in ways that will develop their skills. Becky has created a warm and welcoming class environment where all her students feel encouraged.   Click HERE for a list of Becky’s GENERAL LIST of RECOMMENDED SUPPLIES FOR WATERCOLOR.

 

To register: click on the link below to the Library Arts Center’s Square Online Store, and purchase individual sessions, by the week. If you would like the digital invite link sent to a different email than your payment email address, please send us a quick email to info@libraryartscenter.org to let us know so we can be sure to get you connected!

 

In light of the fact that this time has found many in our creative community without income, if you would like to try out the class, but you can’t afford to join in at this time, just let us know and we will add you in free of charge if we possibly can. Contact us at info@libraryartscenter.org.

This year’s Master Class will be taking place online through Zoom. Using Zoom is an incredibly useful and powerful way to learn about art and painting. We’re able to really examine everybody’s work individually. I can review and discuss and demonstrate on everyone’s work in a way that can’t be done in person. The beautiful thing about learning about art is that it’s a never ending opportunity to learn and grow, to take ourselves to a new level! There is no better time to learn art than now. We will discuss and learn about the primary foundational concepts that are common to all art, such as, Values, Color, Composition, Drawing, “a la prima” painting, brush work…

This year there will be a special focus on Mood and Atmosphere. There is probably no more useful skill to help you get excited about your own work and to distinguish yourself from other artists.  This series of classes is a mixture of Lecture, Demonstration, Question and Answers, Assessment of your work (this is a 100% supportive and encouraging environment!), and technical instruction of paint and paint handling. This class also follows the interests of all the artists, and we have lots of fun conversations and shared insights. It is not a formula method of painting, each person paints in their own style.
