    You're in for a treat! Margie Mersky is an experienced jewelry designer who has been designing jewelry (and teaching about it) for her whole career. She will guide you through the process of jewelry design. After designing your great pendant, earrings, or brooch, the next day you can create your design in polymer clay, assisted by Jan Pini and Margie.

    Margie says here are the supplies for you to bring:

    1. White paper, any type you have or whatever you want to use.
    2. Colored pencils, I use the erasable type.
    3. 6-inch ruler
    4. Micron black fine-line marker. 
    5. Jewelry templates are great but not necessary if you don't want to invest in  a set, there are simple ones that are less expensive. I will have some to share.
    6. And an erasable regular pencil. White eraser if possible.

    Margie will provide:

    Gray paper, tracing paper, and examples of designs that can be used for reference. I'll bring some great books for the class!

    Jan says:

    Bring any polymer clay supplies you have. If you don't have any, don't worry, everything will be provided for a $10 materials fee.

    Maximum class size: 16
    Minimum class size: 8

    Barry teaches watercolor painting techniques. He says:

    Of course our class will center on the usual, with Composition, Values and Color usage being dominate.... purpose being, to create "art" not just a copy of a photo but also with a little excursion into just where watercolor excels and the dirty little  secret that very few water-colorists ever talk about and that is when doing a painting in watercolor is going to make you "work really, really hard" ......in other words,  you're probably not going to have a "happy" day at the easel, but you will have a rewarding one.  We will take that on along with a quick color test of students' pigments (as well as mine) and any other issues the students may bring up.  We will have fun as usual!!

    Students should bring at least three photo references or sketches of their choosing. Their own favorite watercolor supplies including a box of pop up Kleenex. Working surface should be at least 140lb watercolor paper....nothing less.  Subject of the class will be my usual "emphasis on composition and values use with individual instruction for each student."

    • MAL Studio, 4069 Washington Rd. McMuuray, PA 15317
    • 12
    • 4 registrants
    Register

    To the artist, it's a palette of color explosion to paint and we immediately think of what paint colors to mix and the techniques to capture these vibrant colors.

    Drawing is important to plan the design and composition using a sketch book, then the real fun begins when we put the drawing on paper and begin to paint.

    Come join me on this art adventure of learning to paint spring by learning the following:

    • Watercolor Design and Composition Techniques
    • Keeping the main subject the focus
    • Telling the story
    • Getting the right perspective
    • Creating depth and atmosphere
    • Mixing paint to create the colors of spring, not mud
    • Painting water
    • Consistency of the paint mixture, how much water to add to pigment
    • Shapes , both positive and negative , keeping these shapes interesting
    • Values , the value scale from the lightest to darkest values

    Materials List

    • Watercolor paint I use (warm (W), cool (C)):

    W - cadmium yellow, C - lemon yellow, W - cadmium red,  C - alizarin crimson, W - cerulean blue, C - ultramarine blue or cobalt blue.

    These are primary split palette colors using two yellows, two reds and two blues in a warm and cool of each color.

    Additional colors I use :

    W - yellow ochre or raw sienna, W - burnt sienna,  sap green, hookers green,  violet but I like mixing my own.

    • Good watercolor paper such as Arches, 140 lb. cold press
    • A board or something to tape your paper to or use a watercolor block (Arches or Canson Aquarelle) 
    • Brushes: round brush #4, 6; flat chisel edge brushes 1/4 inch to 1/2 inch
    • Old jar or Cool Whip container to hold water
    • Paper towels 
    • Photo references for you to choose the subject material you will be painting. We will be doing subjects of Spring in Bloom. Suggested subjects: trees in a landscape with a stream, a barn, house with garden of flowers, spring flowers, etc.

    This Watercolor Workshop is a casual class, all questions are welcome. Learn techniques in Watercolor; getting the maximum use of your brushes 

    This class is geared toward students interested in learning the wonderful world of watercolor. Some drawing ability is preferred. For beginners to intermediate painters.

    Maximum class size: 16
    Minimum class size: 4

    (Register here for the series or register for 5/23, 5/30, 6/6, and 6/13 sessions separately from the Calendar.)

    To the artist, it's a palette of color explosion to paint and we immediately think of what paint colors to mix and the techniques to capture these vibrant colors.

    Drawing is important to plan the design and composition using a sketch book, then the real fun begins when we put the drawing on paper and begin to paint.

    Come join me on this art adventure of learning to paint spring by learning the following:

    • Watercolor Design and Composition Techniques
    • Keeping the main subject the focus
    • Telling the story
    • Getting the right perspective
    • Creating depth and atmosphere
    • Mixing paint to create the colors of spring, not mud
    • Painting water
    • Consistency of the paint mixture, how much water to add to pigment
    • Shapes , both positive and negative , keeping these shapes interesting
    • Values , the value scale from the lightest to darkest values

    Materials List

    • Watercolor paint I use (warm (W), cool (C)):

    W - cadmium yellow, C - lemon yellow, W - cadmium red,  C - alizarin crimson, W - cerulean blue, C - ultramarine blue or cobalt blue.

    FIGURATIVE DESIGN: Redesigning Light

    An intuitive approach to using the white of the paper.

    Replicating the natural light source as seen in photo references is often done for good reason.  Some images are so stunning that the artist is highly stimulated to paint the scene as it is.  If the artist was tasked, however, with redesigning the light for the sake of a story or mood, what might that look like? To go a step further, what would it look like if the white of the paper was used as a design tool; to focus attention, direct the action, balance or off-balance the composition, or promote contrast?

    Choose your own reference materials to bring whether a single face, a single figure, or two or more figures.
