Fall Classes

My upcoming classes at Island Blue for the Fall of 2007 are as follows:

Beginner Art for Adults – Fridays September 28 – November 16 ~ 9:30 – 12 This class is designed for those who have no experience or very little with art. If you want to be creative, and you have no idea where to start – this class is for you! Students will dabble at drawing, painting, sculpture and printmaking in a non-threatening and fun environment.

Mosaic Workshop – Saturday September 29 ~ 1 -5  Work on the design and composition of your project first and then learn all the technical aspects of mosaics like cutting and trimming tiles, grouting and indirect and direct methods of mosaic.

Artist Trading Card Workshop – Saturday September 15  ~ 12 -4  Have you heard of artist trading cards (ATC’s)? The only rules are that they be 2.5 x 3.5 inches and original pieces of art. Spend the afternoon working with all kinds of artist materials and techniques, be inspired by others and at the end of it all trade your cards.

T-shirt Fabric Printing Workshop – Saturday December 8 ~ 12- 4  Learn a new technique that creates the same great results as traditional screen printing but in half the time.  You will create t-shirts and other fantastic items by stenciling and painting onto the fabric.  This is a quick and easy way to print and get fantastic results every time .

Art Adventures for Kids (ages  8 to 11) - Saturdays September 22 – October 13 ~ 9-11  In this 4 week session, students will learn various techniques of drawing and cartooning.  Students will also be introduced to artist trading cards, stamp-making and printing using their own drawings.
