This workshop
will be an exploration of the surface and the substance of our own images-through
manipulation and transformation. PLAY will be the operative approach.
We will utilize media ranging from low (beach-fire charcoal and sea-grass
reed pens) to high-tech (scanner-printing) in order to create individual
series related to the notion of "automatic drawing". We'll be
working on variously treated papers with such processes as: rubbing, sanding,
tracing, erasing, painting, blotting, altering, printing, reproducing,
enlarging and creating multiples. Two scanners, a printer and a laptop
equipped with Photo Shop and Flash (excuse the pun) technology will be
available to all workshop members, but computer skills are not necessary.
Anyone who wants to shake things up art-wise will benefit from this workshop.
Anne flash has been living and drawing on Cape Cod for
twelve years. Her BFA degree is from MassArt in Boston and her MFA from
Hunter College in New York City. She is a past recipient of two painting
residencies at Yaddo and one at The Millay Colony for the Arts. Her drawings,
paintings and installations have been exhibited in New York City, Boston,
Hartford, and Provincetown. National Public Radio and WGBH recently broadcast
a profile of one of her drawing field trips as part of WCAI's series called
'The Price of Paradise'. Many of her drawings and paintings have been
acquired by private and corporate collections throughout the Northeast.
Her belief, both as an artist and a teacher, is that the practice of drawing
lies at the heart of all art-making.

If you are not happy with your drawing, here is your chance to improve
your skills. All you need for this workshop is a pad of newsprint paper
and a stick of charcoal. We will start with basic shapes and work our
way up. We may even try drawing with a brush! Each session begins with
a 30-minute lecture- the rest of the time is spent drawing. We will learn
the basic steps; how to draw with lines and points; how to represent value,
texture, perspective, depth; and even learn a little about color. There
will be plenty of time for individual attention and for a class critique
at the end of each day.
Peter Chepus studied art at the Cape Cod School of Arts
and at the Armory Art Center in Florida. For the past seven years he has
been conducting painting workshops in Jupiter, Fl. He is a native of Cuba
and has been painting professionally for the past 22 years. His solo exhibits
include the Palm Beach Hibel Museum of Art, Palm Beach Council on the
Arts, and the Truro Public Library. He is represented by Cortile Gallery
in Provincetown, and Creation Gallery in Florida.

July on the Cape is an intense place to be, so we will be utilizing this
energy to create a series of abstract paintings using basic mathematics
and numbers as a guide. In this course we will start and finish one canvas
a day for five days at 25" x 25" utilizing painting, drawing,
scratching or any mark making technique that totals 55 marks per canvas.
We will interact with all 5 canvas' a total of 275 times. Each student
is allowed to use 4 oil colors of their choice with the addition of white.
Charcoal and woodless graphite pencils will also be utilized.
Provincetown painter Denny Camino was born in Pennsylvania
and studied fashion design at the Fashion Institute of Technology in New
York City. After working in the fashion industry, he left Manhattan for
Provincetown, discovering painting when a friend gave him some oils. A
self-taught painter, Mr. Camino has enjoyed immediate success, nearly
selling out his shows. His work has been described as abstract minimalism;
the palette of blues, greens and whites a direct influence from his surroundings
on Cape Cod. Mr. Camino has been in several group and one-man exhibitions,
and his work is in private collections throughout the US as well as international
locations.

Do you love comic books? Do you like to draw? Are there a million stories
in that souped up brain of yours just bursting to get out? Want to sit
around drinking coffee, riffing on plot-lines and cliff-hangers for hours
on end? If the answer is a resounding YES!, then this is the class you've
been waiting for!! Come with a sackload of ideas, some good jokes, and
as much ego as you can fit in your backpack. Group discussion, one on
one instruction and an exploration of comic book and storyboarding styles
will be the order of the day. Bring examples of your favorites and plenty
of pens, pencils, erasers and anything else* you like to work with……Would
be Nerds and Beginners welcome, the only requirement is an enthusiasm
for comics…..
* no fissile materials, please.
Tracey Anderson has an ego the size of Texas and an
unending passion for Marvel Comics. She barely graduated in Drawing &
Painting from Edinburgh College of Art and then had the cheek to go on
to Post Graduate Studies at the Royal College of Art in London. I suppose
she must have shown her work somewhere. Grudgingly represented by the
Julie Heller Gallery in Provincetown, she calls herself an artist and
web/print designer via her get radical design alter ego and is a certifiable
blogger and neo-podcaster. She is co-founder of Project Edge, a group
of artists working collaboratively on the Outer Cape, and is also the
current chair of the Artist Advisory Council at Castle Hill Center for
the Arts in Truro. She is an active member of the Education Committee
at PAAM. Her so called 'work' and teaching schedule can be found at www.traceysandfordanderson.com

The objective of this course is to explore the creative transition form
working with the observed world to working from their internal creative
one. Using time tested techniques that have allowed artists for generations
to find answers within themselves to expression they did not know they
possessed various media, the class will utilize methods of drawing in
charcoal, modeling in clay and journaling to find pathways to develop
ideas to express artistic vision. Drawing: We will work with the figure
as a starting point, using charcoal on large format paper to develop confidence
and a basic visual calligraphy. Modeling: Developing from our work in
drawing, we will expand ideas into the realm of three dimensions, creating
observations form our linear work as well as non linear deductions and
artistic directions. Journaling: Using in class lectures and discussions,
each participant will develop an artists journal, building from the in-class
art work and developing the ideas and visual conclusions outside of class,
through drawing and writing.
Romolo Del Deo Deo is a New York artist who is native
of Provincetown. He has studied sculpture extensively in Pietrasanta and
Florence, Italy as well as pursue scholarships to Harvard College where
he both took a degree and taught. His sculpture has won numerous awards
and grants; including from the New York Foundation for the Arts, Gottleib
Foundation, Sugarman Foundation, National Sculpture Society. His work
is included in many private and public collections. Romolo is currently
working on a group of new sculptures for a traveling exhibition in Arabia
that explores the conflict nexus of that ancient culture's idioms and
contemporary realities. Locally, Romolo has exhibited continuously with
the Berta Walker Gallery in Provincetown since it opened seventeen years
ago and will be featured there this Summer. www.studioromolo.com

The course is intended as a follow up to "Introduction to
Idea Building" but is not required. Methods explored in the course
will involve the various uses of drawing on paper, sculpting with clay
and journaling, but students are welcome to bring in other media. We will
use existing work and rapid studies in drawing, modeling and jottings
to find creative connections. Developing from our idea building we will
focus on a method and a medium to complete an artistic project. Using
in class projects and discussions, each participant will develop an artists
journal, building from the in-class art work and developing the ideas
and visual conclusions outside of class, through drawing, writing and
any other medium that can be introduced into a notebook.

Whether
you work in oils, pastels or watercolors, increasing your awareness of
light, color and atmosphere will improve your painting. This five day
workshop will concentrate on expanding our vision of light, color and
atmosphere using pastels, watercolor or oils. Beginning with simple exercises
in perception of mass through light, shade and colour values, we will
proceed towards sensitizing our eyes to the light key of nature. We will
paint in the most beautiful areas of Truro. Painting the figure in the
landscape may also be explored. Pastel/watercolor students may choose
to use hand made Amalfi watercolor paper or canson mi-tientes paper of
varying tones. A Rembrandt box of 60 or 90 pastels is recommended. Students
working in oils should bring a portable easel, a hat or visor and an impressionist
range of oil colors. Any level of student from beginner to advanced is
welcome.
William Papaleo has been teaching and painting in Italy
over the past twenty years, while creating a bridge to the states through
his workshops and galleries in New York, Washington DC, Rhode Island and
Provincetown. Robert Beverly Hale at the Art Students League and Henry
Hensche at the Cape School were influential in his artistic formation
in America. In Italy his study and practice in ancient and modern oil
and fresco techniques with Antonio Montagna in various churches in Piemonte
and Lombardy and figure and etching at the Accademia di Belle Arti in
Naples were important. Synthesizing classical and modern techniques, his
goal is to give students solid technique to free them to arrive at their
own individual voice.
