Aged to Perfection

What will you look like when you are 80, 90, or even 100 years old? Refine your portrait drawing skills as we study what features cause the face to appear aged. You'll create two complete self portraits: one of your present self and one of yourself after you have "aged". Bring a recent close up photo of yourself to use as a reference.

Russian Nesting Dolls

Russian Nesting Dolls are sometimes called "Matryoshka" dolls. The word refers to a peasant mother of a large family. Each smaller doll inside represents a different member of the family. We will reflect on all the possible meanings of "family," then, using the pinch pot technique, we will create our own family of nesting figures out of clay. In the second part of the class we will paint the figures after the clay has dried. This very personal piece of artwork would make a great gift for a loved one or simply a treasured family keepsake.
