Light and shadow, color strategies, figure construction, and tone design will be discussed and demonstrated, as will direct painting from the model. The complexities of the process will be broken down in a series of exercises, and brought together in a final painting encompassing the elements of art. All levels welcome.

Land Acknowledgement

It is with gratitude and humility that we acknowledge that we are learning, speaking and gathering on the ancestral homelands of the Mohican people, who are the indigenous peoples of this land on which the Norman Rockwell Museum was built. Despite tremendous hardship in being forced from here, today their community resides in Wisconsin and is known as the Stockbridge-Munsee Community. We pay honor and respect to their ancestors past and present as we commit to building a more inclusive and equitable space for all.
