Then this rigorous, but fun class is for you. Learn how to follow shapes, create space, and most of all compose your page, without painstaking proportions and measurements. We will use the model to look hard, but we won't be working towards 19th century realism. You will be composing and deconstructing on the fly, at a fast pace, alternating with very slow and deliberate observation. You can't be attached to the outcome, or even have any idea of what your work will look like when it is done. In fact your work will be “undone” if it gets predictable. This will be an action packed 'process' with no possibility of staying in your rut if you have one. You will be provided with a large paper, drawing and painting materials. Absolute beginners are perfect for this class as well as advanced artists.

Class # Dates & Times Days Sessions Tuition Master Member Tuition Supply Fee Code 7126 May 17 | 10:00 AM-02:00 PM PST Saturday 1 $ 60 $ 54 $ 0 Instructor: Mark Takamichi Miller Many people think that if they can’t draw in proportion they are ‘not talented’ and have no business doing art. Nothing could be further from the truth. If you are not suited to careful measuring and painstaking draftsmanship you are not alone. This has nothing to do with whether or not you are ‘talented’ or whether or not you should try making art. This workshop will teach even the most drafting averse person how to get proportion without sacrificing the real value of the artwork, which is to learn to be comfortable with your own set of ‘talents’. Some people never can make precise measurements, but they can still draw in proportion through an intuitive quick approach.

Class # Dates & Times Days Sessions Tuition Master Member Tuition Supply Fee Code 7128 Jun 28 | 10:00 AM-02:00 PM PST Saturday 1 $ 60 $ 54 $ 0 Instructor: Mark Takamichi Miller Many people think that if they can’t draw in proportion they are ‘not talented’ and have no business doing art. Nothing could be further from the truth. If you are not suited to careful measuring and painstaking draftsmanship you are not alone. This has nothing to do with whether or not you are ‘talented’ or whether or not you should try making art. This workshop will teach even the most drafting averse person how to get proportion without sacrificing the real value of the artwork, which is to learn to be comfortable with your own set of ‘talents’. Some people never can make precise measurements, but they can still draw in proportion through an intuitive quick approach.
This workshop is located off site at The Miller School of Art in White Center.

Do you want to paint 60”x72” without spending $400 on a canvas that is not made to last? Making a canvas this size can cost as little as $25 to make yourself. The quality of canvas is much higher and the flexibility you have with priming options is much greater. Come see how to easily make your own supports from small wood panels to large stretched canvas. After you prepare your canvas then you will learn how to paint on it using oil paints. To paint in oil you need mediums. Mediums are what we add to oil paint to make it brushable, or spreadable and come alive with a unique character all its own. The masters carefully guarded their own formulations of oil mediums because they knew how important they were to the very essence of the painting. Now making your own oil medium or even understanding how to use the readymade mediums in the store is becoming a lost art. Historically the alchemy of paint occupied many artists all of their lives. Find out what you may have been missing in your painting and straighten out the confusing array of mediums. Making your own oil paint mediums is easy and much cheaper, avoid the art store and get some of your materials for much less. Find out how to put together your own set of paints and how to use them in one lesson. Then try them all out and see how they can make such a huge difference. In addition we will cover Non-Toxic Oil Painting.

Workshop: Mokuhanga: Japanese Woodblock Workshop: Mokuhanga: Japanese Woodblock Jun 14, 15 | 10:00 AM-05:00 PM PST Sessions: 2
Class # Dates & Times Days Sessions Tuition Master Member Tuition Supply Fee  Code 7151 Jun 14, 15 | 10:00 AM-05:00 PM PST Sat, Sun 2 $ 230 $ 207 $ 55 Instructor: Charles Spitzack Join artist Charles Spitzack for a two-day intensive workshop exploring the art of Mokuhanga, Japanese woodblock. This technique, which blossomed during Japan’s Edo period (1600-1868), uses water-based pigments to create vibrant prints on washi paper. Unlike many Western printmaking methods, Mokuhanga is done entirely by hand. Over the course of two days, you’ll learn everything you need to begin your own Mokuhanga journey!
This workshop will guide you through each step of the process, starting with image composition and transferring your drawing onto the woodblock. The instructor will demonstrate essential carving techniques and show you how to efficiently transfer your design onto additional blocks, allowing for multi-colored prints. You will also learn about proper tool maintenance, including sharpening carving tools to keep them in excellent condition. The class will cover paper selection and preparation, ensuring the best results when you start the printing phase. Using traditional hand-printing tools, you’ll have the opportunity to create your own unique prints without the need for a press.
By the end of the workshop, you will have gained a solid foundation in Mokuhanga and leave with your own set of completed prints. This hands-on course is perfect for both beginners and those looking to expand their printmaking skills into the world of traditional Japanese woodblock printing.
