Four Seasons / Two Masters
With Pauline Runkel and Jane Goldman

Saturday and Sunday
October 5 and 6, 2013
10 am to 4 pm

Two Days: $250
Materials: $15

Seasonal inspiration drives this four-part, two-day workshop. Bring your favorite containers (3), wire cutters and flower shears, and fresh spring blooms and foliages to inspire you to create floral bouquets for a morning workshop. Pauline will lead you though techniques that will make creating your masterpieces an inspiration to paint in the afternoon. Bringing a box or two to transport your arrangements home will assure their safe travel.

In the afternoon and on the second day, paint the beauty of your arrangement with watercolors guided by celebrated artist Jane Goldman. Take one or all four workshops as a sequence of arranging and painting the seasons through the year. Look for Summer, Fall, and Winter workshops.

Painting Light: A Watercolor Workshop
With Joel Janowitz

Saturday and Sunday
November 2-3, 2013
10 am to 4 pm

Two Days: $250
Materials: $20

This workshop will explore strategies for painting with the challenging medium of watercolor. We will focus on a variety of working methods and on increasing understanding of how transparent washes can be layered both to create a full range of light and dark and to adjust color as one works. We will also stay open to the playful, quick and spontaneous potentials of the medium. Students will paint primarily from observation. Beginning to advanced.

Creative Collaboration: A Weekend with Master Printers


Saturday and Sunday
November 9-10, 2013

9 am to 12 pm
lunch break
1 pm to 4 pm

$175 per Day
$25 per Day for Materials (paper, inks, additives, plates)


Maximum 6 participants per day

A weekend of intense printmaking working with Master Printers, this is a superb way to catapult your work to a whole new level by working one-on-one with a Master Printer to produce one-off monotypes and monoprints. It is a collaborative process that infuses your work with all the advantages of their experience. You will gain new insights into the repertoire of printmaking techniques and moves as they might impact your specific aesthetic and way of working.

Artists new to printmaking and experienced printmakers are welcome.

You may sign up for one day or two days.

A short pop-up exhibition will follow, either at the Cambridge Art association, or in the Chandler Gallery.

Artists new to printmaking and experienced printmakers are welcome!


Incisive Discussions: Critique Seminar
With Julie Graham

Dates TBD
6:30 to 9 pm

Prices TBD

Maximum 9 participants per day

Acclaimed educator and artist Julie Graham is brilliant when it comes to evaluating your artwork and helping you to think and discuss it incisively.

Challenge yourself to grow as an artist. Use this seminar series to “see” your work through other eyes, and to develop goals for its progress. Use the group to test ideas, to practice speaking about your work, and to develop a coherent artist’s statement. This seminar is equivalent to a graduate level class.

Julie Graham will suggest source material, readings, specific works to visit in museums, and references to current art being made.

Class 1: Everyone will present their work, so we can get any idea of what each person is working on, and what their individual goals/expectations are for their work and for the class.

Classes 2-7: Every week a few class members will present their work to the class for a critique that will last from ¾-1 hour. Therefore each student will present their work twice during the 8 weeks. For each individual presentation, the student should have a written list of thoughts about their work, and questions for the class. This should include source material, concepts, goals, and ideas about what is successful and what is not.

Class 8: This will be a final review/overview of the whole class. Depending upon the class’s desires, this could include readings, given by students to their classmates, or by the instructor, or a combination. Or, it could include slide presentations of artists, given by both students and teacher, based upon the work and interests of the class. Alternatively, it could also be the same structure as classes 2-5. Students may also be asked to write artist statements for the final class.
