ADULT ART CAMP
July 26-28
Instructor: Laura Homen
Finally! After many years of requests, NTArts is offering Art Camp for adults! Within the 3 evenings of art making, each “camper” will have the opportunity to work with a variety of mediums. Each project will be taught by an accomplished artist and one can expect to have 2-3 projects completed per evening!
Materials are provided and campers are welcome to bring snacks and beverages to enjoy.
WATERCOLOR BATIK
July 30
Instructor: Ronnie Rector
Take your watercolors to the next level with this fun method of using hot wax to save and build layers of color. Together, we will create a painting on rice paper, which adds an extra element of interest. Students will be walked through the batik process, while assisting each with color mixing, composition and values to create a focal point in their work. A working knowledge of watercolor painting is preferred; this class is not for absolute beginners.
*A lunch break is built into this class. Please bring a bag lunch or come prepared to purchase something locally.
