Art Classes for Adults
Modern Landscape Oil Painting (Intermediate for Adults) *see prerequisites
with Michael Symber

*This class is designed specifically for adult students who have taken either our Beginning Landscape Painting or Oil Painting for Beginners at Michael Symber Studios.
The tradition of Landscape Painting is nearly exclusive to the countryside, ocean views or sunrises. Inspired by the painter, Edward Hopper, we are opening up this genre to include the beauty of Denny’s restaurants, Conoco gas stations, The Waffle House, and more! Use your powerful drawing and painting skills to celebrate the world that we live in every day! (We will be using a non-toxic method of oil painting.)

Clay Portrait Sculpture (Live model)
with Michael Symber

This class is designed for the adult artist.
For many artists sculpture is not a completely separate discipline from their other work. It is a natural progression from drawing to enhance their understanding of form and space. There is no better way to refine drawing skills, to deepen anatomical knowledge, and solidify one’s general familiarity with the figure than to make a sculpture.Students will learn to build an armature and to use terra-cotta clay as they study anatomy, proportions, and clay techniques building a life-size sculpture from a live model.
All materials are included: armature, clay, tools, model fees, firing included.
