David Kinker teaches Insight into Modulations as Value at Sagebrushers Art Society, Thursdays, May 4, 11, 18, 25; 9:30AM-Noon. Texture and value will always be a place to start and finish a painting. Learn powerful control of these elements as an aesthetic to visual mixing, and beyond. Building the foundations for better art, we will build upon and add skills as we move toward spring. Lecture, acrylic painting demonstration, and hands on individual instruction.

Mary Marquiss will be teaching an Abstract Cruciform Design—A Mixed Media Workshop, August 2-4, at Brooks Hall in the Episcopal Church in downtown Bend. This playful workshop encourages individual style as students create a classic cruciform painting. The process begins by creating unique papers that are layered on a  foundation of acrylic or watercolor paint. The cruciform design emerges as artists integrate torn pieces of Japanese rice paper, old sewing patterns, sheet music, and other ephemera. Contact Mary for more details and questions, email here for registration. Only a few spots are left.
