Students will be inspired to create original works of art while utilizing the Heights Library’s wonderful collection of Art and Art History books. Through drawing and painting, students will further develop their skills. The elements of art (line, shape, pattern, color, space, and texture) will be reinforced as the children create their own masterpieces.

Adult Watercolor Class
Sundays 2-5 pm (6 weeks): November 12-December 17
Tuition: $108 ($98 Heights Arts members)

For beginning, intermediate and advanced students. Subjects to be painted from life will include still life, botanical subjects and the human figure (no photographs). A brief 20 to 25-minute demonstration each class will introduce students to the important issues related to visual perception, composition, handling of the paint, and color mixing. Students will be encouraged to work in a spontaneous, painterly manner. The primary emphasis will be on understanding paint as a constructive medium and thinking of color as a means of establishing visual relationships, with particular attention to how colors can convey a sense of light and space. Detailed supply list provided with registration.
