Costa Vavagiakis’ workshop

In early June, Costa Vavagiakis had a wonderful workshop on portrait drawing.  He lectured, brought in supplemental materials, and did mini-demos to cover everything from materials and handling to composition and theoretical principles of drawing.  The model Connie was terrific and the group is looking forward to doing this again!

See you in the fall!

With an exciting summer project and all the exhibitions in and around the city, we may be taking a break from our regular studio schedule but the training and learning never stops.

We’d like to thank everyone who attended our end-of-year celebration last week, as well as those who came and joined us during our evening talks and lectures during the regular school year. We’ll be blogging about exhibits, workshops, and summer sketching until we resume in the fall.

For those interested, Dennis Cheaney’s class will continue running this the summer. However, Open Studio sessions will be on break until September. Stay tuned for more news regarding our lecture series during the 2010-2011 school year.

See you in September!
