Every year at Artists' Mediums we get class requests in the cabin fever season, i.e. January, February and March. This time we've packed every Saturday but Valentine's day with a class. We hope you find them enticing!
My two classes are another offering of "Unlock Your Inner Creature" in January, followed by "Breathing Life Into Your Creature" in February. Details for both below. Pre-registration is required so please contact the shop by calling (800) 255-1290 or (802) 879-1236.

This is a class aimed at those of you who wish to create whimsical, inventive creatures WITHOUT the pressure of making something realistic. No prior drawing experience is necessary. We will experiment with materials and ways of seeing. The goal is to loosen up, have fun, and go home with some new creature friends and the skills and knowledge to make more! Materials are provided, but feel free to bring a favorite pen or paintbrush. Come ready to get your hands dirty and you may want to wear “studio” clothes or an apron.

“Breathing Life Into Your Creature” Drawing Class
Instructor: Kristin Richland
Class date: Saturday, February 28th Class time: 2:00pm-4:00pm
Skill level/age: Beginner, age 16+
(Sign up deadline: Saturday, February 21st)
Class fee: $45/person, most materials included but you’re encouraged to bring your own favorite colored pencils, markers, and/or watercolors to use in addition. If you took the "Unlock" class and/or have creature ideas you'd like to further develop, bring your sketches!
Based on feedback from my first “Unlock” class, this session will focus on how to imbue your creatures with personality and unique characteristics.
Using body language and facial expressions we’ll give our creations the spark they need to leap off the page. In addition, we’ll be trying out a variety of fur, feathers, fins and other visual textures to bring them to life. Come ready to get your hands dirty, “studio” clothes or an apron encouraged.

Parking for classes will be around the corner of our building.
