Open Art Sessions

Ongoing weekly sessions with an open and flexible structure. These sessions are primarily focused on drawing, painting and multi-media techniques, and designed to work with each student on a one-on-one basis. It is open for all experience levels, from beginners to experienced students. Beginner students can develop the fundamental skills for creating successful artworks, learning about light-structure, color theory, rendering, depth, paint layering, mark-making and composition. Intermediate and advanced students will refine their skills and explore more experimental techniques to take their art to the next level.

It is an open class structure, where students will have the choice of what direction they want to focus on in their artwork. The instructor will give constructive feedback on a one-on-one basis with each student as they develop their artwork. Students are encouraged to explore a variety of subjects and approaches, and it can be catered to fit the needs of each individual student.
