Our Spring Workshop Week (typically the last week in March) offers both full and part time students the chance to take a break from their regular studies to focus on something different. Full time students are enrolled in one of three classes; Value with Tony Curanaj (1st years), Drawing from Reproduction of Old Master Figure Drawings with Colleen Barry, and Copying Paintings at the MET with Will St. John.
Also on offer are two regular workshops: Portrait Sketch with Ted Minoff and Travis Schlaht, and The Spanish Still Life with John Morra - both these workshops are being held again this summer.
The sunny, blustery day outside is turning a little moody mid-afternoon. Strains of spanish guitar music sound from the North Studio and country music ambles from the Cast Hall. Will St. John and the painters are under the watchful eye of Hazel Rodriguez at the MET, and students studying portrait have the benefit of having two teachers at once!
Enjoy the photos below of students at work this week:
