SALLY MILNE WATERCOLOUR WORKSHOP

SALLY MILNE will be running a Watercolour Workshop called
"Paintings of Glass" on the weekend of October 22nd and 23rd.
In this 2-day workshop we will explore techniques which will help participants conquer the notion that “glass is the hardest thing to paint in watercolour!” Sally will talk about her approach to this fascinating subject, do demonstrations focusing on achieving clean, transparent colour using both hard edges and soft fluid shapes. Topics for discussion will include setting up a palette, planning compositions using glass objects and creating both representational and abstract paintings. Students will be encouraged to work on some small technique paintings as well as a larger piece which communicates the transparent, reflective, fluid and solid aspects of glass. Some experience with watercolours will be helpful for this workshop.

Date: Saturday, October 22nd and Sunday, October 23rd 2011

Kingston School of Art Classes

LISE MELHORN-BOE is teaching at the Kingston School of Art this fall:

Pop-up Books in the Classroom with Lise Melhorn-Boe Oct. 29: 9:30-4:30
Making pop-ups books with students integrates writing, drawing design and 3-D art! Books can also be linked to many other areas of the curriculum. (Not a teacher, but you'd like to learn about pop-ups? Please feel free to sign up anyway.)

Flag Book Fun with Lise Melhorn-Boe  Nov. 19: 9:30-4:30
A flag book has small pages flying off an accordion spine. It's a great way to turn small two-dimensional works on paper into a three-dimensional extravaganza! If you have prints, photos, drawings, collages or other works on paper that you don't mind cutting up and  playing with, come out for a day of fun.
