VIRTUAL WORKSHOP
Mixed Media on Paper: drawing, printmaking & collage
Aug 9 - 13, 2021
1PM-4PM MST
Concept
Experiment with works on paper in this virtual, mixed-media workshop open to students of all levels. This course focuses on the development of perspective drawing skills in combination with the use of other media. This workshop introduces students to safe, nontoxic methods in printmaking to combine with drawings that don’t require a press and that can be applied outside of the studio. Unexpected results are encouraged as a means of fostering new ideas. Technical demonstrations and critiques will be facilitated via video conferencing software.
This workshop meets via Zoom Video Conferencing software (download free from Zoom.com). An Anderson Ranch staff member co-teaches the class and coordinates the online platform. Further details will be emailed to registrants.
Media
Frottage, image transfer, mediums, alternative drawing media, staining and altering the paper surface

Expanding Image to Form with Digital Fabrication
Letha Wilson
Tuition $1,225
Code D1431-24
This class offers experimentation with methods of representation and abstraction using an interdisciplinary approach that embraces painted and/or photographic images, physical layers, repurposed materials, and sculptural forms. Analog methods of image manipulation, such as cutting, folding, and photo transfer, are taught with digital techniques. Though primarily working in the painting studios, students also learn to use the laser cutter and UV printer in the digital fabrication lab. Participants explore the role of texture and layers in their work through shadow, color, and surface. This course encourages playful and innovative ways to integrate two and three-dimensional elements.

Watercolor: Abstract Leaves
Jan Heaton
Tuition $1,275
Code D1532-24
This workshop invites students to find the balance between spontaneity and control within the watercolor medium. Students explore the evolution of abstract form from the observed reality of a singular leaf or a group of leaves. Each student completes a series of work that explores one central subject, focusing on the line, color, structure, and form of leaves. Various experimental techniques and tools that can be utilized to create a finished painting are demonstrated. Activities include presentations of visual images, discussions of abstract painting, and student-instructor consultations.

Yielding to What's in Front of You: Sustained Looking & The Studio Practice
Christina Quarles
Tuition $1,225
Code D1633-24
The goal of this painting workshop is to be present in your practice and bring that observational attentiveness to a process that allows for malleability and change. Students come prepared to work on self-directed studio projects, and also bring one completed work to share. Half of each day is spent on independent projects, and the other half exploring prompts, engaging in writing exercises, and participating in group critiques and discussions, as well as individual studio visits. We also spend time figure drawing with a live model, and looking at a range of artworks, to hone our observational muscles and consider critical strategies as painters.
