Draw a Still Life*
Be STILL, My Art! July 30, 2021---7:00 - 9:30 PM
All levels welcome! Maybe you have tried to look at objects and draw a picture of them--maybe you have never tried it!
A still life is a piece of art that features an arrangement of inanimate objects as its subject. Usually, these items are set on a table and often include organic objects like fruit and flowers and household items like glassware and textiles.
I would argue that there have been still life paintings for as long as there have been, well…paintings! When an artist needed a subject, he could simply grab a vase or some fruit. As opposed to landscape or portraiture, still life gives an artist the freedom to arrange her own composition at any time.
The first part of the session will be a mini art history talk about still life.
Then, with a helpful tips and guidance throughout from instructor Kerry Molina, you'll have fun giving this a go! No stress! Just fun!
