ABOUT THE INSTRUCTOR:

Melanie Delgado’s paintings have been described as explosive, wildly playful and bold. Perhaps this also describes her personality. Melanie started painting in her early 30’s. While living in California she met her now husband, Marc Delgado. He wondered why she wasn’t making any art of her own. She had worked her whole life looking for ways to help children express themselves. Now Melanie paints in her basement in Glenford, NY. Before moving to Glenford, she lived at the Byrdcliffe Artist Colony for three years. She discovered R&F pigment sticks while taking her one and only painting class at the Woodstock School of Art. Soon after that she starting instructing a class for teen artists at the school. Melanie feels her momentum and continued commitment to painting is a direct result of her connection to the community. She’s participated in many group shows in Woodstock, Kingston and Yonkers. Melanie has also had a few solo gigs. She is currently showing new work at Pinkwater Gallery in Kingston and is trying to keep up with her young daughter Mary Scout.

Drawing On Location

ABOUT THIS WORKSHOP:

Anyone can learn to draw. It is the foundation of the visual arts, and drawing gets one to really notice the world “out there.” This workshop is for students with little or no experience drawing from life. Examples of locations can be anyplace, such as a studio, town, hiking trail, or even the waiting room of an office. Our workshop setting will be outdoors on the Woodstock School of Art campus. Having a sketchbook handy is a way of keeping a visual diary, which is a record of time, place, and response, as well as a marker of a student’s progress.

Workshop will consist of lectures on seeing, the use of line and value, form, working in black, white and color, examples of instructor work, demonstrations, question and answer period. Students will work outside the studio on campus for short term gesture sketching, and longer term drawing assignments with supervision and ample practice time.

Students can expect to come away from this course with new and expanded ideas about drawing, personal expression, and to cultivate the habit of carrying a sketchbook in their daily lives.

Beginner and intermediate skill levels. Ages 12+

ABOUT THE INSTRUCTOR:

Anne Crowley was born in Dublin, Ireland, in 1960.

After making her way to New York City in 1983, to study further, she earned a Masters in Fine Art from Hunter College in 1986. In 2000, she relocated from New York City to the Hudson Valley, finding the new surroundings visually compelling: the Catskill Mountains, the Ashokan Reservoir, deer, birds and flora. Her work has been shown throughout the Hudson Valley, New York City, and Pennsylvania . Anne have spent the last twenty years working as a Master Framer at the WFG gallery, where she also have had solo shows and curated group shows.
