Painting Street Scenes, Cityscapes and People


 Winter quarter watercolor classes at the Westerville Community will start Wednesday, January 11 through February 15. There are two new six week classes, one from 10am - noon and another from 7pm - 9pm. A description of each class is below. Register at the Westerville Community Center, Cleveland Avenue and County Line Road or call (614) 901 6500 for registration information.

Most of us have experienced the frustration that comes from sometimes being able to produce that “masterpiece” that we dreamed of, but often have our efforts fall disappointingly short of expectations. And the worst part is we’re not sure why one effort succeeded and the other failed.

In this class we’ll learn how to use color, value, shape and other design elements to create a painting that grabs our viewers attention and also leads the eye to continue exploring and enjoying our painting. We’ll learn how to create strong focus, energy and interest in our paintings while making our work pleasant and easy to view.

The class will include lecture, demonstrations, individual painting time and a group critique of our previous weeks work work at the beginning of the next
Learn the techniques to paint the four seasons in watercolor. Explore the warm earthy colors of fall, the soft blues and violets of a wintry day, the bright greens and yellows of spring and the woodsy hues of a mid summer landscape. We'll also learn the methods to paint trees and other landscape features as they vary with the seasons.
The class will include lecture, demonstrations, individual painting time and a group critique of our previous weeks work work at the beginning of the next week.
Also, I just updated my website with all new paintings.

This class will benefit anyone who has basic watercolor painting experience and wants to move to the next level.

It is that time of the year, once again, when we start thinking about the NEW year coming, and what we might do to change what we've been doing, lest we continue getting the same results. In that spirit, starting the week of January 9th, I will be offering 6-week classes on Monday and Tuesday mornings and afternoons and Monday evenings. "How To Improve Your Paintings" is for the artist who finishes his/her paintings and knows that something isn't quite right with what they've done. In our classes, we'll go over a variety of principles that will provide solutions and direction for the frustrated painter, comparing visual art/music/theater. At each session, one of those topics will be presented and then demonstrated, followed by time for each artist to paint what they love (in their choice of media) with hands-on help and encouragement. Topics to be presented include Planning Your Painting and How to Get Started, Color Mixing and Matching Colors With a Limited Palette, Importance of Composition, Values/Light and Shadow, Working With the Figure, and a Studio/Plein Aire session. During class, all questions are welcomed and encouraged! Constructive, good-natured critiques will be available if desired for current or previously done paintings, with class participation encouraged. We have a great time together and grow from each other's observations and experiences. It is a warm, nurturing environment to test your wings or refine your skills, having fun and making friends in the process. Wouldn't you like to join us?


"How To Start Making Art" starts off with the very basics of drawing. Even if, or especially if you've not "done" art before, or have been away from it for years, here is an easy on-ramp to get you back and running on the creativity highway. We'll begin with doodling to get you comfortable with a pencil and some no-lose starter exercises. We'll move on to ways to measure so you can accurately capture a likeness of an object, work on perspective, then on to using a grid to assist in composing a still life. Eventually we'll work up to coloring a drawing with colored pencil or watercolors. There is a "no competition" atmosphere, so we aren't on ego trips, but there to help each other. If you've put off following a long-lost love of art, here's a pretty painless opportunity to revive that passion, so come and play with us!


Classes are offered in the following time slots. Let me know which class and which time you would prefer, and offer a 2nd or 3rd option if possible. First come, first served, and when a session reaches the minimum number, you will be notified that it will indeed be held. Classes are limited to a minimum of 4 and a maximum of 7. We meet in a church Sunday school craft room (NW Columbus/Worthington) with good light, a sink, tables and chairs. Classes will meet weekly for three hours, providing 18 hours of instruction for $200. We'll finish by February 14th, just in time for Valentines Day festivities. (Provided, of course, that Mother Nature doesn't disrupt our plans with "white frosting" of her own. We will set up a messaging plan to notify each participant in case of cancellation due to weather.)


Monday mornings, 9:30 a.m. to 12:30 p.m.
Monday afternoons, 1:30 to 4:30 p.m.
Monday evenings, 6 to 9 p.m.
Tuesday mornings, 9:30 a.m. to 12:30 p.m.
Tuesday afternoons, 1:30 to 4:30 p.m.
Tuesday evenings, 6 to 9 p.m.
