Kim's Gallery Walk and Talk June 22
Saturday June 22 sees the return of Kim-Lee Kho’s popular Gallery Walk & Talk, which I always assist with. We LOVE these walks, and so do participants! It’s always a congenial group, and we see some great art and have some wonderful conversations about what we see. This edition we’ll be visiting the recently re-opened MOCA, and we’re busy hatching a few other enticing destinations to round out a great afternoon!
Haliburton School of Art + Design
Landscapes: Real, Imagined & Altered
Please note: This course is not suitable for beginners.
Who hasn’t rendered a landscape at some point in their art-making? Well-known or never-before-seen, real or imagined, fact or fiction — place has an endless capacity to speak to us as artists, captivating us to attempt to capture and express what it is that’s moving, intriguing, haunting us. But this ain’t your conventional landscape course! Designed to get you moving past simply capturing the scene, this course begins with individual artistic field research in the beauty of the nearby Haliburton environment — honing your observational skills. Once back in the studio, you will be challenged to interpret and transform your findings in increasingly expressive and conceptual ways, expanding into guided but self-directed exploration of personal ideas. Some structure and support, lots of creative latitude! Come explore some new artistic territory.
Monday to Friday, July 22 – July 26, 9 am – 4:30pm

Watercolour Painting – Experimental
Challenge your preconceptions about what constitutes a watercolour painting and how it might be created. Through both set and self-directed exercises, you will be encouraged to be as adventurous as possible in your media combinations, methods and subject matter. Group discussion and personal attention will enable you to better understand and develop your artistic vision. If you're already excited about your current direction — develop it, push it further. If you're stuck - become unblocked in a creative, non-threatening environment. If you're just beginning, explore the vast array of options and start to find your path, your voice. This course is both safe haven and launching point: personal expression and direction are paramount, and at every turn you will be encouraged to hear and trust your inner compass in boldly exploring new directions. All levels and abilities are welcome - you need only an open mind and an adventurous spirit.
$20 materials fee.
