Catamount Arts

Thursday, June 19, 12:30-3:30pm

Catamount Arts Center, 115 Eastern Avenue, St. Johnsbury

Hosted by teaching artist Margaret Wiseheart

This four day workshop series offers an opportunity for all levels and ages (16+) of artists to learn by practicing from direct observation, and will include floral arrangements, still lifes, the figure, and a final session to bring it all together in a 3 hour open studio. Sessions will include assistance, support, and suggestions for creating vibrant and masterful alla prima studies that can then be composed into one unique and original artwork.

Thursday, June 19 - Figurative StudyA live model will pose - several short poses and one longer pose, so that all artists can have multiple attempts at capturing the form from a variety of angles, in any medium.

Registration deadline: June 18

Fees: $30/session (10% discount for Catamount Arts members and high school students). Space is limited to 10 students each day, so advance registration is highly encouraged. Registration ends 24 hours before each session. If there is room, we will accept drop-ins - $35 at the door.

Materials: Students are welcome to bring whatever materials they would like to use: paints, drawing materials. A list of suggested materials will be provided to all who register. We will provide easels, and will have some materials available if someone forgets something. If an artist does not have materials to bring, there will be an extra charge of $10 for drawing supplies and $15 for painting supplies.
