THE GAME ROOM

Tuesday Nights is the name of our class and The Game Room is where we meet when we are not together.

Got a idea that just can't wait...tell us about it.
You need to hash something out, maybe we can help.
Or maybe you just want to see what everybody else is up to.
Post links, post pictures, post questions or just ask one.


My Philosophy.
I teach through action and immersion. Just keep moving, contemplate later. In art, for me at least, there are times of rest and contemplation, and times of work. Art making is a time for work. It is the time to pull from the mental and make physical. Create a reality, a piece of art. For this the contemplative brain needs to move over, the art critic side isn’t even invited to the party. Learn to ask and answer your own questions on the move. The sooner I can get you making art the better. Get something done and then we have something to talk about.

Spring has sprung...want to play again?

TUESDAY NIGHTS SPRING
 ART CLASS and WORKSHOP

“Tuesday Nights” is an Art Class/Workshop for local creative types.
Meetings are built around project ideas.
The projects will end in exhibitions, but more importantly this is a way to advance your creative skills while socializing with others of your artistic ilk.

We don't care about how long you have been at it. Some of us have been plowing the creative fields for a while, others are just starting, all that matters is your willingness to jump in and take chances; after all it's only art.

WHERE: Highland Valley Studios.
Highland Valley Studios, Inc.
18528 Highland Valley Road
Ramona, CA  92065
WHEN: The last Tuesday of the month, February 22nd , March 29th, April 26th and May 31st.
TIME: 5PM to 9PM
The Exhibition  will be held in June.

Once a month for 4 hours
            1-hour critique, Demo or lecture
            3 hours to work
Every 2 class meetings will be built around one project.
We will hold an exhibition based on the projects.
While each project will be given with a media in mind, as in all my classes, you are free to extend yourself.
 
Online consultation is included in the price.
You will be encouraged to team up with others students in a playgroup to meet between classes.
The group can also communicate through the class blog.
Once you are enrolled in the class I will add you as one of the authors of the blog, which will allow you to post as well as comment.
Below is the link to the blog.
I want this to be a social and communal art event. 
Goals for the class:
1.    The building of an artistic community through socialization with other artist. (There is something to be said about breathing the air of other creative souls.)
2.    Building artistic community through exhibitions. (It’s not about selling; it is about developing artistic energy through sharing with a larger community. Think of it as A Happening.)
2. To learn to Critique your own and others work effectively.
3.To develop technical proficiency in a variety of media and/or methods, by planning, designing and completing projects.
(The total price is less then the price of most one-day workshops.)
The number of students will be limited.
Enrollment will work on a first come first served basis with priority given to students who sign up for all four.
The price is $25 a class, or $80 if you sign up for all 4 months.
