In this one-session workshop, students will explore the expressive qualities of the traditional Chinese brush. We will practice basic calligraphy strokes and see how different script styles create unique lines and textures. Participants will then apply these techniques to complete a simple seasonal ink painting—a winter branch with red berries in the snow. No experience is required.

Similar to the original Acrylics on Canvas class, students will receive step-by-step instructions that will result in a finished painting for beginners and more seasoned artists alike. However, in this class, students will focus on completing a single subject over the course of four classes in order to practice skills such as sketching, proportions, washing, color values, light source, and composition.

In this five-week course, students will explore the exciting world of cartooning from the ground up. Starting with beginner drawing techniques, they’ll learn how to sketch expressive faces, dynamic poses, and unique character features. Each week builds new skills—from shaping personalities and story concepts to refining line work, proportions, and style. By the end of the session, every student will design and complete their own original cartoon character, ready to leap off the page in full color.

In this workshop, you will create a dynamic scene step by step—starting with a loose sketch from reference photos, followed by pen and ink for structure. Then, you'll bring your scene to life with watercolor, refine it by adding tonal values, and finish with expressive ink details and textures.

In this two-session workshop, participants will design and carve a double-sided wood block, one side for bold color shapes, the other for fine details. Students will develop their own imagery, transfer designs, prepare and carve the block, and explore color layering through printing. No experience is needed, just curiosity and a willingness to explore the creative world of printmaking.
