SUMMARY:Watercolor Unleashed - Wet & Wild Ocean! -- with Julie Gilbert Pollard
DESCRIPTION:This workshop will show you how to paint the misty\, salty ocean waves as they crash upon the rocky shore. \nLearn to apply the “anatomy” of an ocean wave – along with how to paint rocks that actually look solid and hard – to a water-media painting. \nThe focus of this workshop will be watercolor – with gouache as a secondary OPTIONAL medium. \nA very versatile painting medium\, gouache can be used in both transparent / translucent and opaque applications. \nAdding gouache to your watercolor toolbox opens up a range of possibilities with the medium\, thereby helping us to capture our artistic vision. \nYou will be encouraged to add gouache white OR a full palette of opaque colors if you wish. The choice is yours!  Review the supply list for more details. \nReference photo material will be shared with you\, but you are welcome to use your own if you prefer. \nThere will be demos\, instruction at all levels\, one-on-one critique and lots of painting time. \nClass time will be structured\, yet open enough to accommodate the artistic spirit within us all. \nAll levels are welcome and encouraged to attend. The only prerequisite is an attitude of joy in the act of painting and some watercolor experience! \nTuition: $475 (member)/$525 (non-member) \nhttp://www.pineshoresartassociation.org \neducation@pineshoresartassociation.org \n6095973557

SUMMARY:Drawing with Joseph Rogine
DESCRIPTION:1:00 PM – 3:00 PM \nThis class is being offered to ages 12 and up! \n$20.00 for members per class \n$25.00 for non members per class \nInstructor: Joseph Rogine \nThese classes are designed for both beginning to advanced students who want to sharpen their skills in drawing. \nI have taught students for over 25 years who have never picked up a pencil to draw to those who have been quite advanced. \nIt is an academic course\, (academic being defined as that which can be taught). \nDrawings are created by copying master drawings\, simple to complex still-life objects and classical plaster casts. The student usually begins by copying a master drawing that is supplied to them. \nAll students start out using graphite pencils with grades of 2H HB 2B. \nThe capabilities and limitations of drawing materials and drawing instruments are discussed at length along with their proper handling. \nClasses are essentially about learning how to see nature and the world as an artist sees it\, through the language and medium of drawing. \nThe student’s eye will gradually become trained and sensitive on how to compose a layout on the page\, assessing proportion\, elementary perspective\, gauge angles\, identify shapes\, access the degree of curvature of forms\, locate hidden movements and linear rhythms\, the structure and modeling of form and the study of light and shade. \nThis opens a whole new world towards a visual literacy that was very common in school curricula 100 to 150 years ago. \nDepending on a students’ progress and particular interest repeat students are free to experiment with various drawing mediums like charcoal\, pastel pencil\, pen and ink etc.\, along with the drawing surfaces applicable to their chosen medium. Joseph Rogine supply list 2024. \nIf you have any questions\, please contact Joseph Rogine at 732-349-6859\, or by email at info@ocartistsguild.org. (ages 12+\, teen\, adult\, drawing) \nhttps://www.ocartistsguild.org/event/drawing-with-joseph-rogine-29/ \ninfo@ocartistsguild.org \n732-270-3111

SUMMARY:Watercolor Unleashed - Wet & Wild Ocean! -- with Julie Gilbert Pollard
DESCRIPTION:This workshop will show you how to paint the misty\, salty ocean waves as they crash upon the rocky shore. \nLearn to apply the “anatomy” of an ocean wave – along with how to paint rocks that actually look solid and hard – to a water-media painting. \nThe focus of this workshop will be watercolor – with gouache as a secondary OPTIONAL medium. \nA very versatile painting medium\, gouache can be used in both transparent / translucent and opaque applications. \nAdding gouache to your watercolor toolbox opens up a range of possibilities with the medium\, thereby helping us to capture our artistic vision. \nYou will be encouraged to add gouache white OR a full palette of opaque colors if you wish. The choice is yours!  Review the supply list for more details. \nReference photo material will be shared with you\, but you are welcome to use your own if you prefer. \nThere will be demos\, instruction at all levels\, one-on-one critique and lots of painting time. \nClass time will be structured\, yet open enough to accommodate the artistic spirit within us all. \nAll levels are welcome and encouraged to attend. The only prerequisite is an attitude of joy in the act of painting and some watercolor experience! \nTuition: $475 (member)/$525 (non-member) \nhttp://www.pineshoresartassociation.org \neducation@pineshoresartassociation.org \n6095973557
