Join us in our newest art series, Artistic Encounters! In this monthly program, instructor Jennifer will guide us through some art history and then lead us in creating our own works of art. Some months we will take a look at a specific artist, or sometimes an entire art movement, always considering the medium the artists worked in, looking at samples of their work, and finally trying our hand at a project inspired by the artist or art movement.
Happy New Year! We will kick off 2025 looking at the art of American artist Charley Harper. His minimal realism was a fascinating approach to wildlife and nature, and always recognizable, timeless and appreciated today. In this class, we will look at his approach and technique to his subjects as well as the elements of art he included in his designs to create our own Charley Harper inspired painting. Whether you choose a cardinal, woodpecker, wren, or another personal favorite, nature’s beautiful feathered friends will be our subject this month.Â
