Ms. Joy's Intermediate/Advanced Painting Workshop: Individualized Artworks
Description
Former Lower School art teacher and professional artist Joy Liberman will offer Sunday painting workshops this fall, beginning on September 7th. The morning workshop,"What Color is Water?" (10 a.m.-noon) is for beginning/intermediate students in Grades 6-8, and the "Individualized Artworks" afternoon workshop (1-3 p.m.) is for intermediate/advanced students in Grades 8-12.

Students attending this workshop will demonstrate previous painting experience acquired through my workshops, school classes, or other painting classes. Day one will begin with a brief review of studio procedures, with the rest of our time spent preparing for the creation of the students’ painting project. In terms of subject matter, this workshop is designed to be individualized according to each painters’ goals. I will assist students in selecting subject matter and finding resource materials. Working from observation in the form of photographs, drawings or other printed materials is advised as a starting point. My goal is to mentor students by giving feedback about color, composition and technique.


If you have questions about the schedule or your student's placement, please contact Joy Liberman (joyliberman58@gmail.com).

A guide to workshop skill levels:

Beginning: Students grades 6 through 8 who have not painted with acrylic paints or who have very limited experience.
Beginning/Intermediate: Students in grades 6 through 8 who have had some instruction with acrylic painting techniques and who have made several paintings.
Intermediate/Advanced: Students in grades 9 through 12 who have had some instruction with acrylic painting techniques and have made several paintings.
