The 3-day workshop will be live, at the Burke Arts Council Gallery Classroom, beginning daily at 9:30 am, ending at 4:30 pm with a one-hour lunch break. In this live studio workshop, a short demonstration clarifying techniques and sharing pointers on figure painting and composing a scene will be offered on the first day. A live model (clothed) will be used for Days 1 and 2. At the end of the second day, participants will take photos of the model in different poses. The photos will be taken on your iPads or cell phones. If cell phones are used, you must have the photos you wish to use for class printed out. It is suggested that you use the CVS in Morganton to do this. Photos on iPads can be used for the class. Students should arrive early to set up easels and equipment and be ready for class.
