SUMMARY:The Paint Spot Presents: Learn to Draw Hands
DESCRIPTION:Hands are one of the most expressive parts of human anatomy. They are also the bane of most artist’s existences. They can be incredibly frustrating to understand and translate to paper. In this workshop\, students will run through a series of modules and exercises\, focusing on how to approach\, construct\, and understand how to draw the human hand. \nThis class will also promote Sketchbook experimentation. Finding the joy of drawing and figuring things out. Making mistakes is not something to shy away from\, but something that helps build confidence and reinforce a stronger understanding of the medium. \nAbout the Instructor: \n\nDaniel is a cartoonist and illustrator based out of Edmonton.

His blend of tradition and classical anatomy mixed with modern cartooning has made a big splash in the community. \n\nSuggested Supplies: \n1.    Sketchbook\n2.    Coloured leads (either mechanical or coloured pencil; at least 3\, one dark\, medium and light colour)\n3.    Sharpener\n4.    A pencil\, notebook\, snack\, drink\, and your own PPE (mask\, hand sanitizer) \nWhen: Monday\, May 12th from 6:00-9:00 PM\nWhere: Artelier\, 10045 81 Ave NW\, Edmonton (back alley entrance)\nCost: $60 per person \nClass limit is 15 students.

SUMMARY:The Paint Spot Presents: Pet Portrait in Pastel
DESCRIPTION:Join renowned artist David Shkolny for an engaging portrait painting workshop! Perfect for artists of all levels\, this class will guide you through essential techniques to bring your portraits to life. Submit your photo in advance or use one provided in class. Don’t miss this opportunity to learn from a celebrated instructor with over two decades of teaching experience. \nBeginning with a well-constructed sketch\, build up layers of colour to capture the light and textures of your pet. Following step-by-step instructions you will gain a great understanding of the key techniques you can take with you in the future. Please email studio@paintspot.ca before the class with your photo to ensure it has the right ingredients for a good portrait (photos will also be provided if you don’t have one). \nAbout the Instructor: \nDavid Shkolny grew up in Fort Saskatchewan\, Alberta. He has a Bachelor of Fine Arts degree from the Nova Scotia College of Art and Design (1992). He has been teaching painting and drawing since 2001. David’s artwork is in collections across Europe and North America as well as the Canada Council. Recent public commissions include a painting for Fort Saskatchewan City Hall as well as a pastel for the Kaye Edmonton Clinic. \nSuggested Supplies: \n\nSet of good quality soft (chalk) pastels (Sennelier\, Schmincke are good brands) minimum of 24 (the more\, the better). It’s helpful to have a set of Nupastel in addition to the ones mentioned (they are harder\, but good for detail and blending). The cheaper sets will not have good colour adhesion.\nAugment the set with some good darks\, (almost black) like purple\, red and green\, as the palette will have more of the dark hues for much of the work.\nPastel Premier paper 12 x 16” in Italian Clay – 1-2 sheets\nSoft vine charcoal medium thickness (about ¼” diameter)\, not too skinny as they break easily and not too fat\nKneadable eraser\, 18″ ruler\, masking tape\, smooth drawing board around 14 x 18” (Masonite Panel works)\nSmall bottle of isopropyl alcohol (70-99%) and a couple of  flat brushes used for acrylic or oil in ¾” and ¼”\nApron (protects clothes from pastels)\, suitable art clothes\, snack\, drink\, and your own PPE (mask\, hand sanitizer)\n\nWhen: Saturday\, May 17th from 10 am to 4 pm\nWhere: Artelier\, 10045 81 Ave NW\, Edmonton (back alley entrance)\nCost: $80 + supply list per person \nClass limit is 15 students.
