Press Release
11th Annual Adult Art Workshops Series
Salt Lake City, UT - February 24, 2011

Art Access/VSA Utah announces its annual series of five 8-hour art workshops for adults with and without disabilities. Each workshop is taught by a local professional artist.

#1 IMPRESSIONISTIC LAYERED LANDSCAPE
with Michelle Condrat - Saturday, March 19
Participants will explore a mixed media technique of layered chalk pastels, oil pastels, and scraping/carving to create an impressionistic landscape.

#2 FIGURE DRAWING - Life, Memory & Imagination
with Brian Kershisnik - Saturday, April 16
Participants will explore the aspects of assimilating the idea of the human figure in artwork by drawing from a live model, from memory, and using imagination.

#3 FINDING YOUR INNNER PATTERNS through Self Portraiture
with Erica Houston - Saturday, April 30
Participants will invoke emotions and thoughts with self portraits done in colored pencil on patterned paper.

#4 CREATING an OBSESSION for PRINTMAKING
with Jared Nielsen - Saturday, May 7
Participants will create relief prints using carved linoleum blocks, inks, and a small proofing press.

#5 PAINTED FURNITURE as WORKS of ART
with Bonnie Sucec - Saturday, May 21
Participants will think about furniture (an old wooden chair, small table, trunk, magazine rack, etc.) in a whole new way as the form of the furniture suggests a story and how to paint it.

Each all-day Saturday workshop (9AM to 5PM) includes art supplies and a boxed-lunch for a $50 fee (which can be reduced or waived if needed). The workshops will be held in the Art Access/VSA Utah workshop space at 230 South 500 West, #125 in Salt Lake City. Space is limited and pre-registration is required. Interested adults should contact Jean at 801-328-0703, option 7 for a registration form.
