FOUNDATIONAL WATERCOLOR USING A CLASSIC METHOD—ONLINE

“I was called by Penny who informed me that this class was opening and that my friends wanted to make sure that I knew about it. I appreciated the personal touch from both Penny and my friends!!

Stan as always was an astute instructor with a clear vision for this class and his guidance is always kind, perceptive and intelligent. He is so willing to share his knowledge which is vast, and his demonstrations beautifully capture the concepts he is presenting

The structure that came with this class.... line drawing, value study, and a value painting using one color.... was something that I needed, benefited and enjoyed. The concept of VALUE has been a difficult one to grasp and to apply; the repetition of the art projects helped to instill, not master by any means, the concepts of lights, darks, shapes and connections. This class was a true learning experience for me.

As always, I am very appreciative of the Athenaeum's wide range of class, the expertise and knowledge of the instructors and the kind, quick responding support staff that make these ZOOM classes available!”

“Lori’s oozes talent and creativity!! Her lessons are always so innovative, but with fundamentals consistently being covered. She always has a well thought out art activity, she presents a step by step sequence, and always checks to make sure that everyone understands what the process is. Her demonstrations are amazing and inspirational and her feedback is always positive and instructive. She is supportive, informative and always takes the time to encourage each and every one of us on our artistic journey!!! I have appreciated the Athenaeum’s response to the COVID 19 pandemic by so quickly adapting and providing the wide range of art classes using ZOOM. The teachers have done a marvelous job of adapting their lessons, techniques, demonstrations, and feedback during these ZOOM classes. The Athenaeum support staff have been consistently available and supportive when something goes awry. Everyone deserves a big round of applause!!!”
