Tuesdays, 10 AM-12 PM | Aug. 5, 12, 19, 26 & Sept. 2, 9
$195 Members | $215 Non-Members (Materials not included)

Under the guidance of artist Misuk Goltz, participants will learn how to paint figures in a surrounding environment, landscapes (including one urban scene), and flowers in natural settings. Students will gain experience on how to structure compositions from original references and will explore the painterly aspect of arranging shapes, values, and colors to complete an expressive painting. Each week, the lesson format will consist of a demonstration, a painting session, and a critique of each participant’s work. For this workshop, participants should be familiar with the basics of drawing and watercolor painting.

Healing Arts Program

This program offers a six-week workshop that uses art as a healing language for those experiencing grief from the loss of a loved one, as well as one-time workshops that focus more broadly on themes related to depression, anxiety, or major life changes. Through the process of art making, participants have opportunities for discussion, education, and connecting with peers in a safe and supportive space.

This program is generously sponsored by Bob & Joanne Andresen. Participants must be 18 or older, and no art experience is necessary. Limited to the first 8 participants who register. Registration online is required.
