Oil and Acrylic Painting Class

California Landscape Artist Jane Hink  is offering a class in Oil and Acrylic Painting for Villagers as the Art Room in Cribari Center.  This class runs from August 6 until August 27, 4 Fridays.

Jane began working in oil when she was chosen as a 5th grader to join a class with Dr. Marque Reitzel, head of Art at SJSU.   Later study at SJSU and the College of Arts and Crafts at Berkeley brought many artistic influences to Jane's repertoire, including a course in Oakland with Richard Diebenkorn and one with the famous George Post.

Jane has taught 10 classes for Villagers so far.  Students have been very appreciative of her careful explanations of the properties of both oil and acrylic.  Her demonstrations are usually in oil, but most of her students use acrylics for quick drying.  

Each class begins with a demonstration by Jane and a talk on color blending.  She instructs students how to paint the first background.  As they work, Jane circulates to give pointers and critique their efforts from the very beginning.  The students come back to the instructor's table for the next step in the painting.  As they work on the second section, Jane goes around and helps students where they need it.  This continues, step by step, until the painting is complete,  

Fee:   $60. Register at barb.gottesman@gmail.com   Checks are due to Barb by July 30.

Proof of Covid vaccine is required for this class.  Participants are expected to bring to the first class a canvas or a canvas board, 3 brushes, and their tube paints.  For beginners in acrylics, the art club has tubes of Liquitex acrylics available for use in the Art Room.
