NEW! MONTHLY MASTERCLASS!
Collage Masterclass Jan. 20, Feb. 17 & Mar. 17, 2023 The third Friday of each month. I was thinking of taking an online Zoom course (although I don't really like them) in the hope of priming my creative pump, when I came across an offering by artist/instructor Kal Honey. I know his teaching style and personality: energetic, positive, very knowledgeable and always provides great exercises to get my creative juices going. He delivered! Thanks Kal.
– LINDA Thanks for all the effort you put into your lessons. The art history component adds so much to the success of the assignment.
And it's so great to have an instructor who lets you fly and has no desire to have you copy his own style and ideas. Sooooo refreshing. – L. P. |

5-WEEK COURSE
MORE Winter Palette Tuesdays, Jan. 17 - Feb. 14, 2023 After autumn’s final burst of glory, a more understated, nuanced palette descends on our world. Populated with highly-modified tones and shades of tertiary colours and punctuated with the clean, stark value contrasts brought by snow and sun, winter brings the painter a much-needed chromatic reprieve and palette cleanse. We’ll begin by examining the season’s colours and their associations before launching into exploratory mixing exercises. From there, inspired by masterwork examples, we’ll move into more painterly and personal investigations of these quiet colours in literal and metaphorical contexts.

4-WEEK COURSE
Unpacking the Masters: Learning from Impressionism Wednesdays, Jan. 25 - Feb. 15, 2023 Unpacking the Masters
A series of focussed short courses designed to demystify the ideas and methods of specific art movements. A boring drone with endless art history slides? Heck no! These courses are firmly hands-on! We’ll first analyze key works and artists for what made them tick, then try our hand at creating our own work applying similar ideas, before culminating in more opened-ended explorations to see what useful lessons we can draw out of the movement for our own work. The Impressionists broke with long-standing traditions by eschewing detail in favour of the expressive power of colour, movement and light. They paved the way for us to embrace sensory beauty over dry objective reality. If you want to infuse your work with painterly chromatic life — then this is the course for you! |
