Making Progress…
Some shots of this week's progress!
Thirty Feet!
This week I have been working hard on a thirty foot painting on paper! When it is finished, this painting's dimensions will be 30 feet by about a little less than 4 feet. Below are some shots of the piece as it progresses.
The first installment, about 8 feet.
At 16 feet and counting…
The next 8 feet, an in progress shot!
Stay tuned for the final result!
Asscher Cut
This week I made two new paintings that are based loosely on Asscher cut diamonds. Unlike my paintings below, a true Asscher is a square, similar to an emerald cut.
In 1902 the Asscher Cut was the first cut to become patented by its creator, Joseph Asscher, the grandson of John Isaac Asscher, the founder of the Royal Asscher Diamond Company. The company's headquarters still stands in its original location in Amsterdam, the Netherlands.
The Finished Bowls!
I picked up my two new bowls this week. They are fired and finished!
Take a Class with me this summer!
This summer I will be teaching two one-day workshops with the Sharon Arts Center in Manchester, New Hampshire. The course descriptions are listed below.
Crazy about Color! Manchester / Jacquelyn Gleisner
This one-day workshop investigates the rich and exciting world of color. Why was Picasso so blue? How was Matisse so rosy? The class will explore how artists have used color
o set a specific mood and tone. We will also discuss basic color theory and create a work of art inspired by a specific color theme. Students will create a custom color wheel, learn how to mix color, and create several examples of different types of color schemes to use as a reference for future work. By the end of the day, students will have a complete color toolkit they can use to enhance their art.
Prerequisite: None. Limit: 15
Sat, July 26 / 10 am – 4 pm / 1 Day / FB9
MPTN018 / Tuition: $80
Oil Painting 101
Manchester / Jacquelyn Gleisner
Students will explore beginning and advanced oil painting techniques such as color mixing, color value, composition, glazing, brushwork, paint application, and texture in this one-day workshop. Emphasis will be placed on proper paint handling and application processses. Students will create at least one alla prima oil painting by the end of the day. The workshop will cover all the foundational elements of the most popular painting medium so students can continue painting with oil beyond this workshop. Prerequisite: None. Limit: 15
Sat, Aug. 2 / 10 am – 4 pm / 1 Day / FB 9
MPTN019 / Tuition: $80
