An
intense and challenging workshop offering an entrance into
capturing the outdoor scenic beauty of Santa Fe county. We
will work on sumptuous silk surfaces with jewel-toned dyes.
A contemporary silk painting approach will be used with the
following
tools:
fabric markers, mist sprayers, brush, and sponge;
mediums:
sodium alginate, stop flow, dye, water, and
techniques:
thickened dyes, wet-on-wet, monotype, dry brush, and line
work.
The
morning will be spent in preparation of supplies, an
explanation of landscape compositions with teacher samples
and demonstration of techniques. Next we will hop on a
van
and drive to a choice area on the out-skirts of Santa Fe.
Students will paint scenes of personal choice. There will
be lively group discussions, and plenty of individual
guidance from the instructor. Expect to finish 3 to 6
landscapes on silk. Past silk painting experience required
(intermediate to advanced) and some art background
preferred.
CLASS CLOSED
Limit: 12 Students
