Open Drawing & Painting Workshop with Jana Stiles
Bring in those drawings or paintings that you would like help with or bring some ideas of a work you’d like to start. Each piece will be explored with individualized assistance and inspiration. Working alongside students, Jana demonstrates possibilities to practice and incorporate into your art. Other demonstrations will be offered throughout the day for inspiration and help in learning new skills. This is a workshop to challenge yourself to try something you have always wanted to learn but not sure where to start. Breaking down seemingly complex problems into simple steps can help you see your work in a whole new way. You may work from your own photos or from creative still-life projects that will be set up in our workspace. We may even pair up and sketch each other for fun! Â Join us for a day of exploration in a relaxed and supportive atmosphere for learning.
