SPRING TEACHING

SPRING TEACHING

Yeah, that's me, the paunchy guy with the mustache and three piece suit! ;-) But seriously, I am teaching several classes next semester at both the Main Line Art Center and the Wayne Art Center.

At MLAC in Haverford, PA:
Figure Drawing and Painting
Class Level: All Levels
Day: Tuesday
Time: 6:30 pm to 9:30 pm
Start: Mar 31, 2009 End: May 26, 2009

and

Painting with Oils
Class Level: All Levels
Day: Thursday
Time: 6:30 pm to 9:30 pm
Start: Apr 2, 2009 End: May 21, 2009

For more info click here.

Through the Wayne Art Center:

The Figure in the Landscape
all levels
Tuesdays, 10 am to 1 pm.
Starts April 28, goes for six weeks.

This is a new class and I am very excited about it! One of my students offered me the use of her gorgeous farm in Berwyn, PA: outbuildings, spring house, creek, woods, fields, pond, paddock with horse etc. I'll have a model available for those who care to pursue that aesthetic line, but people can paint what they wish! There is a barn in which to paint the model on any rainy days, and also covered porches and loggias for the sun sensitive, and best of all for women landscape painters: access to bathrooms!

Artist Blog Seminar

The Artist's Blog
Date: Feb 5, 2009
Time: 7:30 pm
Location: The Main Line Art Center
$5 M/$10 NM
One of the most effective and free online communication tools for artists is the blog. Artist blogs provide an easy way to display your art, discuss your creative process, post exhibition announcements and more. Bring your laptop and join Nancy as she shows you how to design and set up your own blog to take advantage of this fun and easy communication tool, something which can become a creative outlet in its own right!
