August Theme: Learning from Milton
Friday, August 4, 2023
Oooh, I am sooo excited about this theme.....
Registered students - watch for email with more details coming to your inbox.
Milton Avery will be the master artist we study this month. He is an inspiration to me and I think he most definitely will be to you as well by the end of August.
We will learn more of him, his life as a painter which began at age 40, but the main focus here will be on his SHAPES. And as painters, that's what we do, we paint Shapes! And he is master of them.
And we will not gloss over his COLOR choices either...they are odd and compelling.
Please do not make any snap judgements about whether you care for his work or not, resonate with or not.....there is such a deep well to explore here.....let me be your guide, or rather we will invite Milton to be our guide - you will not be disappointed. Delights ahead!
There is a lot to choose from his inventory of paintings....he painted
Landscapes
Seascapes
and oh my, Figures! Delicious, distorted, amazing
Figures
March in Brown
Orange Sand

Classes start next week and run for 4 weeks. $125, Monday 10 to noon, Wed 10 to noon California time on Zoom - care to join us?
