Painting the Autumn Landscape in Acrylic
Kay Brathol-Hostvet
In this fast-paced,
one-day workshop you will focus on painting the landscape from your own photographs "a la prima" style-quickly,
loosely, and expressively-without the use of multiple glazes or extensive blending. The direct approach is both visual and
intuitive and encourages great personal expression. Working in acrylic has the benefits of little odor, water clean-up, and
quick drying which allows for almost immediate changes. This workshop is for all skill levels, but previous painting experience
in any medium is very helpful.

Introduction to Block Printing
(linoleum, etc.) S.V. Medaris
This
is an introductory level printmaking class. Explore how to make block prints using linoleum. Plan, draw and transfer
your design, prep, cut and print a linoleum block without a press. Demonstrations will include: different ways to add
color to your print, printing on fabric and/or tees (with the press),or silk scarves printed by hand, and a 2-color card/print
with basic registration.
Focus on a design for holiday or greeting cards if you'd like, giving it your personal touch. Or, consider printing on scarves or tees, with gift making in mind. A smaller
block can be carved reasonably fast, and used as a repetitive motif. Explore the power of the multiple in printmaking...
by printing patterned motifs or printing repetitions on fabric and cards. (additional cost for silk scarves, or bring your
own t-shirts, all are great affordable gifts)
Make
your design as simple or as complex as you'd like, but keep details to a minimum and/or size of block small so that you
can finish cutting and printing before end of workshop. (5" x 7" - 4" x 6" ideal. No larger than 8" x 10")
Better understand the different substrates for cutting (different kinds of linoleum, rubber, wood, and synthetic materials),
different papers for printing on, and the different tools you'll need for different techniques/substrates. Note: More detailed information on supply list. Sat / Sun, Oct 19 & 20, Sat 9-4, Sun 10-4
