Folk Art Painting

Tuesdays 6:30 pm - 8:30 pm
July 1 - 29th

Folk art often simplifies the subject by using geometric shapes, bold colors, and no constraints on proportions. In this folk art class, students will focus on recognizing basic geometric shapes of animals, people, and foliage and incorporate those crude shapes into creating folk art style subjects. Students will experiment with using coordinating and contrasting colors to bring drama into their art. Students will also explore
techniques of painting boldly and loosely. $50 for the series (no class 7/15)

Suggested Supply List: *Basic Acrylic starter set–I use Liquitex or Golden brand tubes (Set should include white, yellow, blue, red, black and possibly a green) *Set of acrylic brushes (combo of flat and filbert) *Stretched canvas (9x12 or 8x10 is fine) *Palette (something simple–can be reusable plastic or the disposable palette sheets of paper) *Sketchbook (any size) *Pencil with eraser
