Open Studio Program – Painting Outside the Lines with Michele Miller

Are you interested in the visual arts, but not sure how to hone your skills and improve your technique? Open Studio will be a opportunity for artists to receive one-on-one feedback, direction, inspiration  and answers for their art related questions. Develop your repertoire to better realize your vision!

Artists are encouraged to bring any artwork which they wish to receive feedback or help with. They are welcome to bring multiple paintings. The Open Studio in the museum will be a place to create and learn. Artists will work on their current projects and listen and learn from demos and the feedback that others in the group are receiving, benefitting from both one-on-one guidance and collaborative inspiration.

All ages welcome.

All mediums welcome (including, but not limited to: watercolour, oil, acrylic, sketching, pastel etc).

Open Art Sessions will be monthly at the Huron County Museum this fall. Some topics that will be highlighted for individual sessions include but will not be limited to: seeing; value; colour mixing; composition; edges; how to create more painterly/loose paintings; warm and cool colours etc.

$10 cost per session (to be paid to instructor directly)
