Monotypes Without A Press with Scott Gellatly
Monotypes are a natural extension from painting into printmaking. It is often referred to as the “painterly print.” However, there are several techniques in this distinctive process which yield effects and imagery that can’t be achieved through painting. Scott will demonstrate various monotype techniques that can be done at your kitchen table - without a press!

The practice of quick sketching is invaluable in its capacity for sharpening an artist’s eye, developing ideas, and keeping an artist's practice "fresh." In this demonstration Nathan will introduce some sketching methods that, when applied daily, will become a powerful force for an artist's creative exploration while serving as a touchstone for observational techniques.

Fudenosuke Brush Pen Illustration with Nicole Poole
In this demo Nicole will show how to manipulate Japanese brush pens to create illustrations with dramatic line variations and how pressure and speed can greatly affect the appearance and feeling of an illustration. These brush pens are really paintbrushes with the liquid ink loaded into the barrel like a pen. Nicole will work in a spontaneous fashion and encourages participants to illustrate along with her.

The Monumental Quality of Light using Acrylics with Steve Kleier
Light is the thing that stimulates our eyes. Painting it is one of the most exciting illusions that artists can achieve. When renaissance artists studied the pattern of chiaroscuro (literally light and shadow) they affected art in a fundamental way. But there is more to painting light than simply illuminating our world. It is also a driver of composition, description, and storytelling. Steve will show some paintings as samples and demonstrate with acrylics, but the ideas hold for any type of paint or 2 dimensional medium.

Pastels with Susan Kuznitsky 
I will do a pastel demo on sanded paper using hard and soft pastels layered on a watercolor underpainting highlighting how to capture the light in pastels.
