Painting From Life
with Hagop "Jack" Keledjian
Tuesdays    ongoing
9:00am - 4:00pm $75/day  
 
 
These Painting From Life offerings will provide artists and students the opportunity to study with award winning Putney Painter, Hagop Keledjian. In these classes, participants will acquire a taste of the technical, emotional, and intellectual approaches to oil painting from life through still lifes, portrait and landscape painting. These sessions will include demonstrations followed by 1:1 instruction and critiques. Keledjian, is interested in developing serious groups of painters to work with on an ongoing basis, similar to The Putney Painters, of which he has been a member since 2001. The Maestro, Richard Schmid, continually encourages students at Village Arts not to box themselves into thinking that you are only a landscape painter, or only a portrait painter. If you understand how to see properly, you can paint anything. Jack's classes will show you how to see the beauty of the world, whether it is a still life, landscape or portrait, as a mosaic of harmonic color notes.

"I teach people how to think right when approaching the task of painting. With a good approach, an artist can discover what it is that makes the painting authentic and beautiful. In other words, what makes a painting sing."
--J. Keledjian
