Lecture
Etching: Technique, Materials, and a Demonstration
with Stuart Loughridge
Stuart Loughridge will lecture on the etching process and then demonstrate the printing process: handling the paper, inking the plate and printing the plate. This lecture is an introduction to etching but also offers insights into the history of printmaking, how printmaking influences a body of work, and how printmaking can generate income. Questions will be encouraged throughout the lecture.
Photo Reference Lecture Only
with Christine Mitzuk
How DO they do that?! Are you uncertain, or do you have questions about how to create a picture of things that don’t exist? This could be a posthumous portrait, a picture of something historical, or something completely fictional. You know you need references but don’t know what to do. In this workshop, we’ll share information, tips, and tricks about how to know what kind and how much reference you need, pictorial as well as legal considerations, what kind of reference is available to artists, and ways to shoot your own reference by either working with a photographer who has the ideal gear, or using what you have available if you have budget and/or time constraints. Come with questions! On Friday there will be a presentation and demonstration at The Atelier.
DIY Framing for Artists
with Joy Wolfe

She will give a demonstration on constructing a frame, glass cutting, and assembling a framed piece of art with basic framing tools. You will walk away with a list of tools and knowledge to create your own winning combinations.
