Art Appreciation: a Hands-on art class with Jas at Townsend Atelier

November 12, 2018 by jas milam

Wednesday evenings in 2019
January 9-30
6-8 pm
Instructor:  Jas Milam
No experience required.  Artists and non-artists are all welcome!

We are excited to introduce a new series of classes that combines an art history lesson with a fun and meaningful hands-on art project.  Looking back on contemporary art history there are certain artists that define a period, a movement, a medium, or a style. Familiarity with these artists and their work enriches both the artist and the non-artist’s understanding of and appreciation of art. This artistic intelligence provides a fundamental context in which to view and/or make art. In this 4 week workshop, we will do both. Each week participants will learn about the life and work of one influential artist through PowerPoint presentations,  followed by a hands-on art project related to the featured artist.   All materials are provided; bring your own sack dinner or snack if you wish.
This is a great way to start off your new year!

The first four artists that the well-educated artist and art student will learn about are:

Week 1: Piet Mondrian | de stijl movement, hard edge painting

Week 2:  Alexander Calder |  mobiles

Week 3:   Joseph Cornell | assemblage

Week 4 – Georgia O’Keefe | watercolor flower paintings
