Canvas Building
In this class you’ll learn how to put together and stretch a 20″x24″ canvas, gallery depth, including priming with gesso. With rising costs of pre-stretched canvas, this is an essential skill that allows any painter – at any skill level – to save a little bit of money if they intend on multiple pieces. It’s also fun to create future custom sizes you cannot buy in stores. *Please note, this is NOT a painting class!* Ages 16+

Figure Drawing
Join us for a session on figure drawing and studying the human body. Paper and pencil will be provided, or bring your material. A clothed live model will pose for 5-minute- and 20-minute periods. There will be an artist instructor – Fiko Insel. We will be using vine charcoal, graphite pencils (2B), ink, brush, paper, easel and/or board. We will start with a still-life warm-up (30 min), followed by a 3 x 5 min pose (30 min), and a 2 x 20 min pose (60 min). Ages 14+
