New people beginning to work in ART or with some experience will find welcome and support needed to learn basic skills, along with coaching needed to develop their own style. The class includes drawing and painting in watercolour, oil (water soluble or citric base) and acrylic, as well as instruction in composition, colour, materials and technique.

The Project:

Pouches with Pizazzz! Make a basket that suits your creativity. We are going to learn to make a twined pouch that you can finish off however you want. Either make a very personal wall basket to hold whatever with some embellishments that you have brought to make it truly your own. Things like pinecones, small shells, feathers, beads etc. As long as it has a hole in it, you can use it. I will bring a few things as well to help add to your stash (don't rely on my contributions, make it your own). Or you can make a berry picking basket, just in time for blueberries. I will provide a strap so that you can wear it around your neck to keep your hands free for picking those yummy berries. LENGTH OF WORKSHOP: 10:00 a.m. to 4:30 p.m. MATERIALS FEE: $15.00 per student REQUIREMENT FOR STUDENTS: (please insure bring the following, if you do not have any of the items, don’t go out and buy, we can share). Bucket, pan or vessel for holding water LOCATION: Muskoka Lakes Museum Leslie Songer Terry |

August 24, 2007 Workshop Guide: J.P. Frost |
A historical/contemporary survey of symbols and their power to transform our lives, this class will travel through time to help us understand the origin of modern symbols and the ways they have been used to terrify, comfort, or inspire courage. Along the way, we will develop a greater appreciation for the deeper symbolic meaning hidden behind symbols of religion, medicine, and politics. Thought will also be given to developing personally meaningful symbols as a result of our exploration. Jeremy Frost is a graduate student of Philosophy and Religion who has researched myth and ritual in Guinea, West Africa, and Estonia, in the Baltic States. His studies continue as he moves to the Middle East this fall with his partner Angela, where he will continue to explore the symbols, myths, and rituals of religion. |
