In Search of the Feminine

a ten week group experience about
the feminine in art and life

This is not your mother’s goddess group! We will examine the feminine in art history and throughout many cultures as we follow the ups and downs of women’s roles. Art projects will allow men and women to experience creation first hand using methods, materials and information typically associated with women. Ornamentation, jewelry-making, sewing and kitchen windowsill still lifes are some of the methods designed to take us to the feminine in us all. Optional reading list available upon registration.

The Art of the Tarot

a ten week group

The tarot is an ancient and modern tool – a deck of cards that uses visual symbolism to represent the universal states of consciousness of mankind.

The Archetypes We Live With –
What They Have to Teach Us

a ten week art group
for personal growth

By becoming aware of the archetypes operating in our lives we can get a glimpse of our purpose here on earth. Our conflicts and struggles, our strengths and weaknesses, our love lives and our fortunes are tied in with the archetypes we invoke when we begin our journey in life. Using the work of Caroline Myss, Carl Jung and mixed media art techniques, adult participants will name, claim and come to understand their own personal archetypes. A ten week commitment is required for this in depth course of study. Optional reading list provided at registration.

Self Expression Through Painting

a painting workshop
for teens and adults

Six Friday mornings from 10 am to 12 noon begins next week

Art has historically been a way for people to express themselves in a non verbal way. Emotions, stories, dreams and visions that the left brain knows nothing of can be tapped into during the creative process. Whether you are looking for yourself or your artistic voice, this class is for you. We will use tempera paint, watercolors and acrylics to search our psyches and tell our stories in this 6 week class. Color theory, composition and experimental use of materials will be emphasized.
