[B]1-Day Meditation for the Artist Seminar 11/21/09

Instructor: Steven Saitzyk
Sat., November 21st, 10am-5pm
$125[/B]

The creative process is inherently contemplative and naturally benefits from meditation. Meditation enhances not only the creative process but also the viewing process in specific ways—it helps to synchronize mind and body, right and left hemispheres of the brain, and our intuitive and intellectual abilities. The mindfulness and awareness practices found in meditation lead us to rest in our senses so we can glimpse things as they are and enjoy genuine spontaneity and pure, unselfconscious, expression. They also dissolve creative blockages and reveal the source of creativity and inspiration. This one day seminar will teach meditation and offer specific contemplative exercises and activities such as non-objective brush and ink painting designed to further awaken your creative and viewing processes. Instructor: Steven Saitzyk. Adjunct Professor of Humanities and Design Sciences, Art Center College of Design. International Director of Shambhala Art, a nonprofit arts education program designed to integrate meditation into the creative process. See: www.shambhalaart.org. He has completed a Buddhist Seminary and has practiced and taught meditation internationally for more than thirty years.

#2140 - Figurative Watercolor Painting
Instructor: Bill Perkins
Monday, 7pm-10pm

This class is for those artists who enjoy the challenge of painting directly with watercolor. We will progress from sketching to more finished approaches in the medium. We will work from a model and begin with 2D design and mixing clean color, to form and non-form expressions through various watercolor techniques. Though we will progress in steps for clarity, this is not a step-by-step paint like me course. My goal is to help the individual artist become more proficient in the style they choose or would like to achieve.

#2150A - Still Life Painting
Instructor: Mark Cummings
Tuesday, 11am-2pm

This still life course will introduce students to an understanding about composition, lighting, proper volume of form and color.

We will also cover understanding light and its different temperatures and how it affects the model. If you are passionate about learning to paint figures from life with bravura brushwork and riveting color, this class is for you. Class level is for intermediate to advanced painters, but students MUST know how to draw the human figure at an intermediate to advanced level.
