Drawing and Mixed Media (Adult/Teen) – 

Available on Monday evenings and Tuesday morning

This course is designed to help students improve their overall art practice by learning the fundamentals of drawing. Working primarily from still life objects, students will cover basic drawing techniques and learn how to look at an object and render it in a structural drawing. A focus will be placed on observational skills and techniques such as gesture, proportion, perspective, contour, value and tonal study. Using graphite, charcoal, pen and ink with washes and scratchboards, students will have the opportunity to explore elements such as value and contrast in detail.

Oil Painting – Available all-day Monday and Wednesday evening

Classes are open to both beginner and intermediate students. The courses are designed to allow students to develop skills at their own pace, while the instructor assists everyone based on individual needs. From basic skills such as mixing colours, to learning new techniques and perfecting the application of the medium being studied, every student will have the opportunity to grow their practice.

For beginners, the oil painting course will allow students to become familiar with the tools and mediums used in oil painting. Students will be guided through the process of selecting a photograph and turning it into a painting. Composition, layout, and blocking in colour are taught and proper brush stroke technique is demonstrated.

Intermediate students will continue to build on the fundamental skills of oil painting and will begin to experiment with new techniques. Artists work independently on a subject of their choice under the supervision of an instructor who is ready to provide assistance.

Watercolour Painting – Available Monday morning, Tuesday evening, Wednesday evening, and Thursday morning

Watercolour is a wonderful medium for artists to start out with when learning how to mix and manipulate colour. Our instructors will teach you how to properly set up a palette, how to blend, which brushes to use in different instances, how to use a wash, and other techniques that will help you create successful watercolour paintings. At the beginner level, students will follow their instructor step-by-step through the creation of a traditional landscape or still life painting. As students become more advanced watercolourists, they are encouraged to choose their own subject matter and are taught more about the advanced techniques that will allow them to create special effects in watercolour.
