It takes us a lot longer to set up these sessions bc everyone is doing a different piece, so getting your selections to us well in advance will make this easier on us & give me time to create some directions for you if the painting you selected doesn't already have them. Thank you!

So please, help us get you going for your fun time with friends, and tell us in advance.

11x14 Canvas
Chiaroscuro flowers II
Such a stunning piece for a simple color palette. You can make the flowers as dense and plentiful as you like. We'll show you how!
What is chiaroscuro? In art, is the use of strong contrasts between light and dark, usually bold contrasts affecting a whole composition. It produces some moody work.

It will take 1.5 to 2 hours to complete, but is less daunting than the standard 16x20" canvas we use.
24 seats available

Basic shape will be stenciled for you.

"The phrase "when pigs fly" (alternatively, "pigs might fly") is an adynaton—a figure of speech so hyperbolic that it describes an impossibility."

O'Keeffe's Red Canna

May 24, 2024 @ 7pm

Stunning new pieces by Liz, as done after O'Keeffe's Red Canna.
There will be a basic outline to start guiding you, but the whole of it is streaked & blended paint.

"With Red Canna, Georgia O'keeffe continued the tendency to distill abstract patterns from natural sources, but now vastly enlarging the fragment of the blossom to fill the thirty-six-inch canvas. The enlargement of motif coincided with her Bing Trees and magnified leaves, also begun in 1924, and, like the latter, her large flowers were drawn from close-up study of natural forms. The restrained brushwork is typical of O'Keeffe's handling of oils, creating peculiarly smoothed shapes and subtle spatial ambiguities in her graded passages from intense tones to pearly whites. As the shapes swell and taper across the plane, they pulse with color and energy, suggesting the artist's continuing fascination with themes of natural vitality, translated to the microcosm of the blossom. Despite the apparent dissimilarity in subject, the floral enlargements provided and analogue to the forces of nature O'Keeffe had previously examined and are thematically related to her abstractions, her Texas skycaps, and her Lake George panoramas."
