Narrative Portrait Painting
Fridays, 1pm-4pm
In this class, you will work from a live model, composing and incorporating elements such as props, clothing, or animals to tell your story. Along with expanding your portrait skills, we will learn to use value, color, edges, impasto, and brushstrokes as compositional devices to lead your viewer's eyes through the visual story of your painting.
Live Zoom Class

The Artist's Workshop
with Cheryl Kline
Thursdays 10:00am - 11:00am
Let's find inspiration. We may visit a virtual exhibit and discuss how artists compose their images and then explore ways that you can dive into a new technique to try it for yourself. Live demonstrations will be your guide. Homework for those who want to try something new and then get feedback. Share a piece that you need help with.
