May 17 DESCRIPTION:Graphite & Watercolor Workshop\nSunday\, May 17 \n10 – 4pm \nSpend a day exploring the combination of graphite and watercolor on paper with artist Jane Ramsey. \nMany watercolorists begin with a light pencil drawing to indicate basic shapes of a painting\, only to cover it up with paint. In this case\, we’ll explore: \n\nWhat if the drawing became as essential as the paint?\nHow can the drawing have more emphasis and presence?\nWhat role can color play in combination with the graphite elements?\n\nThese are all the things we’ll be finding out together! \n \nJane will introduce the variety of drawing tools – pencils\, sticks\, liquid graphite and even powdered graphite. Then she’ll show how they can integrate with the watercolor medium. We will even explore going back to add additional drawing and mark making onto the painted areas. \nWe will focus on all the possibilities! This workshop is more about your chance to experience and play with this medium and less about creating a finished piece. (Although you might be surprised with the outcome and consider them “finished”!) \nAll materials will be supplied for this workshop. Just come with 3-6 photo images for inspiration to work from. \nThe workshop will begin with a demo and discussion of materials and techniques. Jane will share some examples of her experimentation in the studio. We’ll talk about papers and how that contributes to the results. \nThen we’ll break into working on our own and Jane will be available for questions and help. \nPack a lunch and beverage so you can take a break when you want. \nWe’ll wrap up the day by gathering around to see everyone’s efforts and share in the joy of making art! \nTo learn more about Jane and see her artwork visit www.\,janeramsey.com. \n  URL:https://amakerscircle.com/class-workshop/graphite-watercolor-workshop-with-jane-ramsey/ LOCATION:A Maker’s Circle Studio\, 8 Hacklebarney Road\, Pottersville\, NJ\, 07979\, United States CATEGORIES:Adult,Drawing,Jane Ramsey,Painting,Studio D - Rae ATTACH;FMTTYPE=image/jpeg:https://amakerscircle.com/wp-content/uploads/84F39175-0D20-4B40-81F9-7C92FD004341.jpeg ORGANIZER;CN="a maker's circle":MAILTO:amakerscircle@gmail.com END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTART;TZID=America/New_York:20260518T070000 DTEND;TZID=America/New_York:20260518T230000 DTSTAMP:20260513T135744 CREATED:20260427T104032Z LAST-MODIFIED:20260427T104032Z UID:10010532-1779087600-1779145200@amakerscircle.com SUMMARY:May Open Studio for Current Students DESCRIPTION:Join us for Open Studio time in May!  With all access\, we provide a relaxed self – directed environment for clay artists of all levels to create\, explore\, and connect. \nWhether you are continuing a personal project\, practicing wheel throwing or hand building; open studio offers access to tools\, equipment\, and community.

Whether you’re brand new to ceramics or looking for a focused space to continue your own ceramic practice\, this class supports both. The small class size — just 8 students — means Laurie is right there with you\, every step of the way. \nClay and all firing are included. You’ll leave with finished pieces and a strong foundation in the building techniques that make hand building one of the most versatile skills in ceramics. \nTuesdays\, May 19 – July 7 | 10am–1pm | 8 weeks | All levels welcome \nMaterials\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nAll materials and firings are included. \nCancellation Policy\nStudents cancelling at least one week prior to the start of class will receive a full refund.
