Upcoming Studio Strolls
Saturday, September 28, 2024
Featuring instructor demos and student art from the following workshops:
Make Your Own Watercolor Set and Art Journal with Amber Leibee
Make a 5 color professional grade watercolor paint set, brew a bottle of locally foraged botanical ink, and hand bind a softcover watercolor and sketch journal. Learn the history of your pigments and how they work together with ink for use in your hand bound journal.
Thoughtful Bowl Design with Phil Sikes
Turn beautiful bowls while exploring thoughtful design elements that go beyond basic utility. We’ll look at traditional and modern bowl designs and focus on proper tool usage and bowl turning techniques. Students will have the opportunity to turn an open form bowl, enclosed form bowl and shallow bowl if time permits. Prior experience on the lathe is helpful but not required. Those new to woodturning will focus on fundamentals in their projects while experienced turners can focus on more challenging versions of the projects.
Abstract Metal Sculpture from Found Objects with Joe Malesky
Learn to create abstract metal sculptures using reclaimed steel along with found objects. With a focus on spontaneous design, students will be encouraged to incorporate balance and negative space in their sculpture.
