DRAWING WITH YOUR BRUSH
March 7 - 10, 2006

Grab your brush and draw! Participants in this workshop will be shown how to take a little paint, turpentine and a few brushes and go out and draw. These will be quick studies on a sketch pad. The focus will be on shading and forming brush strokes. These studies and any outside work will be done the first two days. Then students will be free to apply what they have learned in their own paintings. Learning to form various brush strokes gives students more creative control of their work. Students may choose to work with oils or acrylic.

Tuition: HCAF Members $175; Non-members $195


PERSPECTIVE AND COMPOSITION
October 17 - 20, 2006

Perspective helps us to understand why things look the way they do. It achieves distance, shape and form. In the landscape it defines where things fit in the sky, on the land and in all things built. For two days the students will do studies inside and out relating perspective to the landscape painting. Also there will be discussion on composition, or the pleasing arrangement of objects in your painting. The last two days, students will compose a painting from the studies that have been done.

Tuition: HCAF Members $175; Non-members $195
