Information on Judy’s Art Classes

I will be teaching more theory than the average art class, simply because I want to give you a successful experience of drawing and watercolour painting.

The first three classes are devoted to drawing techniques….contour line drawing, which stimulates observation skills. This is done by examining still life and interpreting a 3 dimensional object in a 2 dimensional drawing….a very good basic skill. You will be encouraged to practice at home, as it is in the practice that you will become a good observer and increase your hand-eye coordination.

The second and third lessons will introduce you to matters of creating volume and describing form by shading. I will guide you through demonstration, and work with you individually to help you understand this process.

The fourth class is an introduction to the materials required for watercolour painting. I will show the materials so that you can purchase what you will need. This will consist of 3 part–sable brushes, 6 very specific pigments, and good watercolour paper. I don’t believe in students using unsatisfactory equipment because it only results in frustration . I will give demonstrations and exercises which will give you a grasp of the medium.

Classes 5 & 6

This will include working with:

Wet-in wet washes

Understanding your brushes and their uses

Understanding warm and cool colours and the uses of both

Glazes and the importance of transparent and opaque pigments

Your drawing and adding pigment by working on a still life

These techniques are fundamental. Further classes will allow you to develop more advanced skills.

Policies of the classes:

You will be part of a small class, giving you a very unusual amount of

teacher – to - student input.

There is a $240.00 non-refundable fee, payable in advance, for the course.

Please make the cheque payable to Judy Osiowy

Mail payment to Judy Osiowy at, 2-1610 Langan Ave. Port Coquitlam BC, V3C 1K5

There are no make-up classes. If you cannot attend a class, you will go on to the next. class with the rest, as I do not wish to teach two different subject matters in a given class.

Thank you. Looking forward to working with you.
