I’ll make you a punty you can’t refuse: A crash course in American style Venetian techniques

The Czechs, Swedes, and Germans, among others, have long and venerable glass making traditions, but in my opinion, the workshops of the Venetian lagoon, particularly those of the 16th century, produced some of the finest blown glass objects the world has ever known. Join me as I introduce the basics of this style of working, as understood from an American studio perspective. In this workshop we will cover the first steps in blowing thin footed vessels: as difficult to produce as they are beautiful to look at. By the end of this course you will have a solid foundation in:

● bringing a great punty and learning how to spot the ones you should avoid.
● Making and receiving thin blown feet.
● Creating a neckline that will break well. Consistently
● Gathering the right amount of glass
● Straightening a piece on the punty
● Taking a piece off the punty with increased success
The class will be a “skills and drills” type course with demos in the morning and a lot of practice time in the afternoon. The motto of this class will be “fail quickly”. Don’t plan to bring more home from this “crash course” than good working habits that you can apply to your practice, but leave room to surprise yourself!

Previous glassblowing experience required. You should have 1-2 years of experience, and feel comfortable gathering and moving through the steps of making a basic cup.

Lunch is inlcuded in the class!

Veterans Glassblowing Day was initially inspired by President Obama's plea for citizens to help our veterans find work after returning home from Iraq and Afghanistan. Following President Obama's passing of the Veterans Skills to Jobs Act in July 2012, longtime glassblower Lisa Aronzon was inspired by this call to action and invited the glassblowing community to come together in support of our veterans. As our nation faces financial uncertainty, social revolution, acts of violence, and military conflicts, Veterans Glassblowing Day offers a terrific opportunity for Americans to pay it forward to our troops. Pratt Fine Arts Center is proud to offer this FREE opportunity to our Veterans.

Many intricate and sculptural pieces of metal jewelry began life as featureless blocks of wax. By working in wax rather than metal, the carver creates form efficiently and opens up design possibilities. Students in this class will gain a thorough understanding of the processes, tools, and materials used to carve wax models for use in lost wax casting. Starting from a simple design, students will transfer it accurately onto a block of wax, then remove large amounts of excess material. Using a wide variety of simple tools, they will add details and refine surfaces, ending up with a completed wax model ready for casting. Casting is NOT part of this class, however students will leave this class prepared to have their wax models professionally cast or enroll in Introduction to Jewelry Lost Wax Casting to cast their own work.

In this workshop, you will learn how to best select master object, which tools to use, and how to prepare gates and vents so that the molten metal flows best during the pour. You will also learn a special formula to determine the casting weight of non-conventional materials and how much metal to use. After we cast our pieces in bronze, a basic demonstration will be provided about clean-up and finishing options. In this class, students will experience what an extremely useful, rapid, and versatile studio practice this technique can be, especially since master objects are never lost or damaged. This is a perfect process for anyone that has an interest in casting but does not want the mess of investment or the expense of casting machinery. If you decide to sign up for this class, please consider bringing objects for casting exploration that are no more than 2" inches in the largest direction. This will be the ideal size for our class projects.

Students in this class will gain a thorough understanding of the processes, tools, and materials used to carve wax models for use in lost wax casting. Starting from a simple design, students will transfer it accurately onto a block of wax, then remove large amounts of excess material. Using a wide variety of simple tools, they will add details and refine surfaces, ending up with a completed wax model ready for casting. Casting is NOT part of this class, however students will leave this class prepared to have their wax models professionally cast or enroll in Introduction to Jewelry Lost Wax Casting to cast their own work.

Prerequisite: Beginning Jewelry/Metals or equivalent

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.

Have you ever wanted to learn to draw and paint from the figure without having to draw like Leonardo? 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.   

This workshop is located offsite at The Miller School of Art in White Center.

You will learn various methods of bending wood, including but not limited to, steam bending, kerf bending, coopering and laminate bending. We will construct jigs and multiple types of steam boxes, so you can decide which best suits your practice at home. You will learn the safe operation of the shop machinery used in these processes as well and the hand tools needed to further shape wood. We will discuss types of wood and why some bend better than others. With the bent wood forms we create, we will discuss how and why to use these methods in practical and sculptural applications. The project will be informed by our explorations and the possibilities are endless. This project can take shape as many things such as a vase, a component in a piece of furniture or a sculptural work. Supply fee $100.

This class is designed for those students who have hands-on experience but want guidance, planning and help realizing a project. The class will meet and discuss projects individually and as a group. Through the process of creating drawings and models we will refine the design.

It is a great way to take on that project you have been thinking about with the assistance of the instructor to help you problem solve along the way. Materials will be provided to make models and joinery samples, but students will provide their own materials for the finished project. Prerequisite: Beginning Woodworking. Supply Fee $75.

Learn the ancient 'lost wax' casting process. First, you'll learn basic moldmaking to duplicate a design in wax. This wax copy will then be 'invested' in a plaster and sand mixture. Then the wax will be burned out of the plaster, leaving a void to be filled with bronze. Finally, finish your bronze and color it through 'chasing' and 'patination' techniques. All materials except the cost of bronze are included in supply fee. Your wax design must fit in a 5 gallon bucket, including the sprews. Expect to stay late on Investment Day: 10/28/23 & Pour Day: 11/4/23. As a reminder, this can be a messy process and, as community of working artists, we also clean up together!

Damascus steel, the stuff of ancient legends, is taken one step further in the current way of replicating it by forge welding layered steel with a hydraulic press. Celeste Tracy has been making Damascus at Pratt for many years and continues to be fascinated with the process. She will familiarize students with this process by using Pratt's Damascus forge and hydraulic press built specifically for this purpose. This technique opens up the possibilities of a myriad of designs and uses for the patterned steel produced. The student will come away with a billet ready to transform into a future work of art.Class must meet minimum enrollment by 9/29/23 or will be cancelled.

Do you get tired of spending lots of money on inferior pre-stretched canvases at the art supply stores? 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.

This workshop is located off site at The Miller School of Art in White Center.

Acrylic paint is a gorgeous medium that is rich and vibrant. In this class you will make landscape paintings with an emphasis on light, space, structure and pictorial design.  We will also discuss how to organize and simplify complex information, how to create a unified sense of light throughout the picture and how to perceive color and tone relationships. Principles of paint handling and proper use of material, will go hand-in-hand with building skills to render landscape paintings progressively from simple to more complex. Expect a solid work and joy-filled course of landscape painting, overflowing with sequential exercises and interesting experiments. The course is for beginning and intermediate students

Have you ever wanted to see the range of things you can do with your paints?  The possibilities will open you up and get you out of any rut. We will learn about traditional oil mediums to thick clear layers of glossy acrylics; we will try it all.  We pour, brush, scoop, squeegee and soak. Many of the processes are completely unpredictable and surprising. Even if you only plan to paint traditionally this will show you ways to use your materials that you never dreamt of.

Do you love the idea of painting the figure but are intimidated to try because you haven’t drawn before?  Or do you like to paint and draw the figure but wish your work didn’t look like stiff figure studies. Either way this class is for you. We will start with extensive rapid drawing and painting exercises on integrating the figure into a whole composition. The next seven hours will develop one large stretched canvas into a visual experience where you will continually revise your entire painting until the whole comes together.  In the end you may not have a carefully proportioned model but you will have a canvas where all the parts work visually together in shape and color.  We will be using Richard Diebenkorn and others for artistic examples.  Rapid course corrections, intuition, and lack of preciousness will be encouraged as well as very intense looking. Includes all oil paint, large stretched canvas, and model fee.  Bring whatever brushes you already own. 

This workshop is located off site at The Miller School of Art in White Center.

Usually color is taught as 'Color Theory' which involves tediously painting in hundreds of little squares or placing pre-colored papers next to each other. After doing these exercises you still don't know what to do in your real life painting. This workshop is focused on actually using color on your painting and understanding how it works in a way you can use right away. First we will understand how to create and see color using a limited pallette which will teach you how to mix and see subtle color much more effectively. Then, studying particular masters, we will unlock the color harmony in their work so that you can reproduce it in a work of your own. In the end you will have at least two paintings to take home that you can use to find your own individual palette. We will be using oil paint and canvas which is provided for you, please bring your own brushes and palette knives if you have them. 

This workshop is located offsite at Miller School of Art in White Center

Chine collé is a simple technique that uses an etching press to both print and adhere beautiful paper into our print seamlessly. We will experiment with the range of effects that you can achieve by combining printed line art with cut paper.  In this two-day workshop, you will create a copper etching plate, designed with the idea of adding color, pattern and texture to your image. Thin pieces of cut paper are laminated to and printed on in the final image via the etching press. See how chine collé can enhance your printmaking practice.Abstract and representational images both lend themselves well to this technique. No previous print experience is required and copper plates, inks and printmaking paper will be provided.

Learn the basics of etching while you make a portrait of your pet or any other animal that you fancy in this project focused two-day class. If you can draw lines with a pen, you can make an etching - seriously! Even if freehand drawing is not your strong suit, we have you covered as images can be easily transferred for tracing on the plate.

In the first class session, we will cover the basics of hard ground etching from preparing the copper plate to transferring the image and making the marks, then etching the image into the metal. If you need a little extra time to perfect your drawing on the plate, you can take it home with you to continue working in the time between class sessions.

In the second class session, we will cover preparing paper and printing the image, as well as easy ways to add color or texture to the image as desired. By the end of the class, you should have several prints to take home and enjoy of your furry (or feathered or scaly) friend.

All materials including paper and ink will be included in your class supply fees.

Bring photos or previous drawings of your animal subject with you to the first session so we can work together to select an image and scale or refine it to fit the plate using the copy machine.

Join Kamla Kakaria and Romson Regarde Bustillo in discovering the rich traditions of Oaxaca while exploring the art of printmaking in the heart of one of its most traditional neighborhoods, Jalatlaco. Led by studio master artists at (https://www.facebook.com/ProduccionGraficaZanate/) run by the talented Daniel Flores, this workshop promises a deep dive into the world of printmaking. In this workshop we will work traditionally in the cooperative, communal approach of the studio master artists who will etch, proof and print the plates we create. This can allow for experimentation with new techniques and ideas which you can bring back to your own work. We will use two plates (foreground and background) that are etched with salts (not acid). The Mexican master artists share their innovations in technique and experimentation to create surfaces to etch using tusche, aerosol, craquelure and Judea bitumen bags resulting in unusual and beautiful results. Daniel and his team will assist every step of the way. This workshop is your chance to immerse yourself in art, culture, and creativity in the enchanting setting of Oaxaca. Don't miss this opportunity to learn, experiment, and be inspired in one of Mexico's most artistic and traditional neighborhoods. Join us for an unforgettable artistic journey!

Learn to create your own zines, small booklets between 8 and 32 pages long often illustrated with imagery and poetry, etc...  Dating back to the 19th century, these charming folded-paper books, called chapbooks were inspired by popular culture and were perfect for mixing visual art and written texts.  In the 1970's the zine was coopted by the young punk movement as a way to disseminate information on various punk bands and other information including poetry and photocopy imagery...  In this workshop, we will write from prompts and exercises to produce fragments of poetry and prose then blend with stamping, drawing, painting, and collage techniques to make our own individual zines sewn by machine, hand or stapled.  Join us to think big in a small way.
