Immerse yourself in figure drawing as you explore traditional and contemporary perspectives on the human form. This course is primarily hands-on, focusing on capturing the human figure and its anatomical subtleties. Areas of study include anatomy, gesture, light, shadow, drapery, and the flow and character of the human form. You will experiment with various dry media, such as charcoal, Conté, and graphite.

This course is designed for artists at any stage—beginner, intermediate, or advanced—and supports each student’s unique creative journey. By the end, students will complete a final project that showcases their growth and accomplishments in figure drawing.

This class is for all students interested in advancing their painting skills and is intended for any skill level and experience. Beginners and more experienced painters alike benefit from class exercises and in-studio personal instruction designed to build confidence in their individual choices while gaining a solid understanding of painting fundamentals.

Using still life set-ups, each of the eight classes covers step-by-step, essential elements found in successful paintings, including but not limited to...

• How color and value work together to build form.
• How composition, perspective, and scale combine for the best results. 

Special focus will be on how to manage color and enhance the overall experience of painting.  Addressed early in the class will be the proper care and maintenance of painting tools, and the differences between painting mediums, brushes, and canvases.

Experience the magic of pour painting, a unique technique where vibrant colors flow freely onto the canvas. Participants are encouraged to choose three colors of their liking and let their creativity soar.

In this workshop, students will create their unique painting on an 8” x 10” canvas. Due to the nature of the materials, completed paintings will be left to dry and available for pick-up after two days, during The Dairy Barn’s regular hours Tuesday-Friday 9:00 AM - 5:00 PM, and Saturday-Sunday 12:00 PM - 5:00 PM.
