We’re bridging the gap between high-end aesthetics and eco-conscious practices, proving that you can create luxury arrangements that are as kind to the earth as they are stunning to look at.

Throughout the day, you’ll master the art of conscious design from the ground up. We’ll teach you how to source and forage greenery responsibly, trade out single-use design tools for sustainable alternatives and celebrate the very best of our region by working with fresh, hyper-local flowers grown by In Bloom Flower Farm. You’ll gain the practical skills needed to lower your environmental impact while crafting a gorgeous, high-impact arrangement with your own hands. Spaces are limited to keep this experience intimate and hands-on.

Once you have mastered the language of light and shadow, a world of vibrant possibility opens. This course is designed as the natural evolution for those who have discovered the power of the pencil in our Intro to Drawing I class and are ready to breathe life into their work through the sophisticated medium of colored pencil. We invite artists of all generations to return to the studio, reuniting the precision of our foundational skills with the emotive energy of a full-color palette. Our journey begins by revisiting the "Inner Architect”, refreshing our mastery of line, shape, and perspective to ensure our structural bones are rock-solid. From there, we transition into the foundational principles of color theory. You will learn to see color not just as a decorative layer, but as a structural tool. We move beyond "coloring in" to explore how hue and saturation interact with our established knowledge of value and form, allowing you to create depth and dimension that rivals any painting. The heart of the class lies in the exploration of the colored pencil itself. You will dive into professional techniques such as layering, burnishing, and glazing, discovering how to blend pigments directly on the page to achieve rich, luminous mid-tones and dramatic, high-contrast shadows. We continue our focus on thoughtful design through thumbnail sketching, ensuring your compositions are as intentional as your color choices. Join us as we bridge the gap between the sketch and the masterpiece.

Derived from the French expression for "in open air," plein air painting invites artists to step outside the studio and capture the landscape live on location. This fall, join us on Saturday mornings as we travel to scenic spots throughout the CSRA to paint the vibrant autumn season in watercolor. Painting outdoors presents unique and exciting challenges, from shifting light to vast surroundings. At each weekly location, you will choose your own focal point and learn how to translate the scene before you onto paper. With individual guidance and suggestions from the instructor, you will focus on framing strong compositions, working with confidence and speed, and learning the art of editing and discovering what elements strengthen your painting and what can be left out. Classes meet every Saturday morning at a different designated location across the CSRA. Students bring their own watercolor supplies, and a complete supply list will be provided following registration.

*If a class must be cancelled due to inclement weather, a make-up date will be provided.
