Description:
This class is brand new and designed for those students still hungry for
more art classes beyond those I’ve previously offered. This will
be WAY fun for them and for me! Some of my ideas are the
following: learn techniques to paint lovely fabrics such as satin and
velvet and lace, learn how to capture a variety of skin tones in oil
pastel, learn how to use splatter and stamping effects in watercolor and
pen and ink pieces, and learn how to use charcoal to make rose petals
look velvety soft, to name just a few. I also plan to have a
brainstorm session during our very first class and compile a list of
possible projects based on students’ interests and passions about
subjects in art they’ve always wanted to explore, and then create
lessons around their ideas. For this reason, students MUST have
taken at least one full year of Mixed Media, so they are comfortable
working in all the mediums we’ve used before (Oil Pastel, Pen and Ink
with Watercolor, and Compressed Charcoal.)
The Christmas Celebration date is Thursday, December xx, 20xx. The Spring Showcase is Thursday, May xx, 20xx. Dates for this class: This class will meet on the dates listed below. The tuition will be $110.
Tutor:
Sandy Adler attended Austin Community
College to pursue an A.A. in Fine Arts, Minneapolis Technical College to
pursue an A.A. in Graphic/Commercial Design, and Crown College for a
B.A.
in
Christian Education.
She is currently a practicing and
accomplished artist in both fine arts and graphic design.
She is the Director of Marekting,
Advertising and Promotion as well as Vice President of Heart of the City
Ministries, a non-profit organization led by Sandy and her husband for
the purpose of bringing racial and denominational unity to the Body of
Christ in the Twin Cities area.
Her paintings in oil pastel have been
featured in businesses in the Osseo area.
She has been teaching art for the past
15 years in area co-ops as well as after school enrichment programs in
the local school districts, with over 160 students during the 20012-13
school year.
In 2006 Sandy won a grant through the
Metropolitan Regional Arts Council to bring her pastels class into a
select group of inner-city schools, in order to provide supplies and
instruction to students living at or below poverty level.
An 11-year home school veteran herself,
Sandy’s passion is to make art instruction engaging and inspiring for
students of all levels, and to help them truly learn to “see” the beauty
of God’s world around them as they learn art basics and secrets that
hone their own skills and abilities as young artists.
