Classes

Everyone can learn and make art! Many of the students that we have taught at senior centers have never taken art classes before. It is wonderful to see the speed at which progress is made, and the joy and pride that come with it.

Our approach is to draw upon the rich history of art for inspiration in our projects. We begin each class by looking at the work of past and present artists and use their art as a jumping off point for each project. 

The Collage Still-Life

MONDAYS, 9:30am - 11:30am
$35 for a 2-hour class

In this class we will explore the genre of the Still-Life, constructed through the technique of collage, a major innovation of the twentieth century. The artists who will guide and inspire us along the way will include Giorgio Morandi, Anne Ryan and Georges Braque.Taking a cue from the Cubist Movement that revolutionized the art-making process at the beginning of the twentieth century, we will investigate the use of everyday materials in creating a collage still-life.
