Oil painting class description for Clark College (Vancouver WA) Winter Term.
We have created a fun and unintimidating class for beginners to advanced painters. I’ve learned that everything builds on just a few basic concepts that I will share with you.
Oil paint is much easier to use once you learn the basics. Everyone paints at their own level and at their own speed. I'm there to share and to help bring out the world of creativity within you!
http://www.campusce.net/Clark/Course/Course.aspx?c=1981
Move to a higher level in oil painting with individualized help, lectures and demonstrations. Classes will include increased critique and instructor feedback while keeping the treasured open studio environment. Supply List to be emailed 4-5 weeks prior to class. Mature Learning classes are for people age 55 and older only.

“God loves Italy and proved it by dropping Tuscany right in the middle. If there is a more beautiful place on earth, I have yet to find it. Tuscany is a great, rolling, patchwork quilt of green and gold that yields only to the occasional, hilltop castle and surrounding medieval village.”
-Jeff Water-workshop artist
Workshop dates May5th-May19th 2012. Deposit not due until March 1st with Full payment due April 1st

More information to help you make up your mind.
The Hotel/The Estate
 
Antica Tenuta Le Casacce dominates the Orcia valley, between Monte Amiata and Montalcino (16 km), surrounded by a park full of breathtakingly beautiful, centuries-old olive trees.
 
It dates back to 1260, and by the early 17th century it was the site of an important oil press. Only as recently as the 1990s was it renovated, remaining absolutely faithful to its ancient Tuscan features, and even restoring the tradition of producing an extraordinary extra virgin oil, using the local "Olivastre di Seggiano" olives, which grow only here, and give a unique and inimitable oil, which can even boast curative properties due to its high antioxidant content.
|
|
The Food (All meals included in price)
The true heart of the estate is the agri-restaurant with the renowned and highly reputed chef Enrico Casini, who was acknowledged as one of Italy's top seven cooks under the age of 35, and a student and collaborator of the great master Luigi Veronelli. Enrico will delight your palate and soothe your soul as you rediscover the splendidly simple local culinary and wine traditions, revisited with all his modern-day experience, knowledge and creativity.
 
In the midst of the colours, scents and atmospheres of the Orcia valley, chef Enrico Casini brings you the traditional flavours of Italian, and especially Tuscan, cuisine, reworked in the light of his own experience.

Activities

Michael Orwick paints oils that are glowing dialogues of light. He records the poetry of place, hinting at the mood through atmospheric brushwork and serene colors, merging experience, shared sentiment, and a feeling of place.

Eric Jacobson says, “It is most important to me that my paintings convey a certain mood. I want them to be felt by the viewer without his or her having to analyze or think about them. As a general rule, I try to find strong compositions in nature and then paint the scene accurately while leaving out any extraneous details which would only busy up the painting and detract from the strength of the piece as a whole. http://jacobsenstudio.com/
