Perspective for Artists
Dick Kennedy, retired Graphic Designer
Location: Taught online over Zoom. Link will be provided.
Cost: This workshop is free to Chico Art Center members
Perspective techniques are used by artists to create the realistic impression of depth in their drawings and paintings. Because it can be difficult many artists struggle with the concepts (or they choose to ignore them altogether). This is your chance to learn perspective in an easy, fun way. Learn to see the world as an artist sees it. All that's required is a pencil, ruler, and some inexpensive paper.
For questions and to sign up, contact Dick Kennedy at dkartguy@yahoo.com

LIFE DRAWING
We meet on alternating Monday mornings in Room 2. Joining the workshop is by permission from the group, which relies upon recommendations from group members and other references. You need to be a member of the Chico Art Center to participate. Another possible limiting factor is the amount of physical space available in the classroom. For inquiries about cost or additional information please call or text Mark Gailey at (530) 966-6316
Mondays
9:00am – 3:00pm

WATERCOLOR
We meet in Room 1. This group is NOT FOR BEGINNERS; it is for those who have minimum previous watercolor experience. If you took Carol Preble-Miles' Watercolor class a long time ago, and are unsure of how to proceed, or you are a bit rusty and just need a “kick start” or, if you just want to paint in a group environment, try these open “sessions”.
Space is currently available. Contact Carol Preble-Miles at cpreblemiles[at)gmail.com or leave a message at (530) 893-8716 with any questions.
Tuesdays
9:00am – 12:00pm
