"The fundamental process of creative action is the same for most projects. It has to do with connecting to another person's undeveloped idea and desire, then finding a way to extract a path forward" - Melisse Herman
Current Group Courses
Drawing Exploration
August 2 - September 20, 2021
Mondays at 7pm PT
Course description: In this class, we will be going back to some of the classics to get a better understanding of how to use them to strengthen your drawings. We will be focusing on line, shape, shading and other elements of drawing to expand your drawing vocabulary and how it relates and translates when you move into color. This class will work for beginners as well as students with more experience in drawing. Zoom. $225 per person, contact Melisse to register.
Drawing for Impact
August 3 - September 21, 2021
Tuesdays at 7pm PT
Course description: We will be using drawing as a tool to look at your own visual language and how you want to move forward with your creative process. I plan on bringing in questions of scale, pattern, psychology, etc. to see how they dictate how you view work and how it is viewed. This class is better for students comfortable with their drawing ability. It can be done in a variety of materials, depending on your creative focus. Zoom. $225 per person, contact Melisse to register.
A Portrait a Month
3 sessions: July 29, August 26, September 30, 2021
Thursdays at 7pm PT
Course description: There are many aspects to portraiture which go beyond placement of the features. In this class, we will explore different approaches, how portraits have changed over time, and what is needed to make a portrait interesting. This class will meet once a month for three months. Zoom. $100 per person, contact Melisse to register.
Monthly Critique
3 sessions: September 2, October 7, November 4, 2021
Thursdays at 7pm PT
Course description: We will meet once a month to practice presenting your work for critique as well as critiquing other artists' work. Learning to critique - as opposed to criticize - is an important tool because you can then bring these skills to your process and are able to discern where you need to push your own work. Each month an artist, idea or movement will be presented for group discussion. Zoom. $100 per person, contact Melisse to register.
