SUMMARY:Monotype Workshop With Jane Ramsey\, Sunday\, Aug. 16
DESCRIPTION:Monotype Workshop (Session 1 of 2) \n10-4pm \nSunday\, August 16 \n$195. \nExplore the mark-making possibilities of the monotype printmaking process! \nThe tools are simple and easy to use. We’ll begin by inking our acrylic plates and then\, using a variety of different items (rags\, makeup sponges\, spatulas\, popsicle sticks\, etc.) we will remove the ink to reveal our “whites”.  There’s even more to explore with adding texture by using sponges\, nylon scrubbies\, and more to press into the inked plate. \nYou can even go back into the finished monotype and add more toning or marks using a variety of tools such as litho sticks\, charcoal pencils and graphite. (SEE SESSION 2 to explore this with your prints made in this workshop.) \nMonotype printing is an experience in “letting go”!  Even as you plan and create there will always be unexpected marks that happen. This leads to all kinds of improvisation. \nThis technique is open to all kinds of interpretation. From abstraction to realism\, the possibilities are endless! \nI will be doing a demo of the process and showing you how I find inspiration from my sketchbooks\, translating them to monotypes. Then we’ll begin making our own monotypes. In addition to black ink\, this workshop will be expanded into using color inks for gradated effects! It will be exciting! \nAll art supplies are included. \nWhat to bring: \n\nThe process can be a little messy so wear appropriate clothes and/or an apron. If you are wearing long sleeves\, make sure you can push them up out of the way. Nothing dangly on your wrists\, they get in the way.\nBring some photos (either printed out or on your phone) for inspiration. Or some sketches or drawings that you find inspiring to work from. The subjects should be simple. For instance\, a singular tree\, flower\, animal\, etc.\nPack a lunch/snacks and beverage as we’ll take a break during the day.\n\n  \nJane will hold an optional “day 2” if you would like to take your prints to the next level. Take a look here.

SUMMARY:Monotype Printing with Jane Ramsey (Optional Day 2)
DESCRIPTION:Monotype Workshop (Session 2 of 2) \nPrerequisite: Must attend Monotype Workshop Session 1 \n10-2 \nMonday\, August 17 \n$120. \nWith the monotype prints created in  Sesson 1\, we will explore how to use them as the foundation and add to them with assorted materials. Using drawing materials (charcoal\, litho crayon\, pastels\, pencils\, etc.) and paints (watercolor and gouache)\, we will add color and details to bring another level of depth\, detail and expression. \nIt’s a perfect way to use ghost prints (a second print made from the plate that is lighter and more faded than the first monotype print). It’s amazing to see what you can add to the prints and how it transforms them. If you’ve ever admired Degas’ ballet paintings and drawings\, you’d be amazed to know that they incorporate the monotype process! \nI’ll be doing a short demo showing you some of the techniques I like to use. Art materials will be supplied that you can try out. Colored graphite sticks\, pastels\, paints\, colored pencils\, charcoal and more. \nWhat to bring: \n\nYour photos or reference materials you used the first day\nYour monotype prints made in Session 1\nAny of your personal art supplies you’d like to try\nPack a lunch/snacks and beverage as we’ll take a break during the day.

SUMMARY:Drawing for Painting with Jackie Pankuck Fridays\, Sept-Nov\, 2026
DESCRIPTION:This drawing class is designed for painters and will focus on rendering a scene with just enough specificity to be the skeleton for a future painting. We will focus on the following concepts: \n\ncontour drawing\nobservational skills\, scale and proportion\nproportion and measurement\, gridding\nutilizing negative space to get the positive shapes right\nand the dreaded…perspective\n\nStudents will utilize photo references to create drawings that can be later used for paintings. \nAll materials will be provided for creating a preparatory drawing for 1\, 1/4 sheet watercolor painting per class. If students want to prep drawings for additional future paintings\, please bring additional watercolor paper for that purpose. \nCancelation Policy:  \nStudents cancelling outside one week before the beginning of the session will be refunded in full. Inside one week\, tuition is non-refundable as materials and instructors must be paid.
