  1. Painting workshop at Townsend Atelier Monday, June 14, 2010

    Townsend Atelier has recently announced a series of workshops, seminars, and classes to be held at its new home here on Main Street.  A well-known asset to the Chattanooga art community, Townsend Atelier recently relocated to the heart of the Southside and will now use their expanded space to provide beginning and professional artists with a place to learn, experiment, and grow. 

    Their newest painting workshop is “Painting the Head in Oil” with Chattanooga-based instructor Jim Aplin.  Working from a live model, students will strengthen their drawing skills, examine the proportions and planes of the head, and enhance tonal painting by the introduction of complementary colors.  The class will be small, adapted to each person’s progress, with plenty of individual instruction.

    The workshop is for intermediate to advanced artists (drawing and painting experience is required) and will run October 22, 23, and 24 from 9:00 a.m. - 5:00 p.m.
 The final day will conclude at noon, followed by catered lunch and (optional) tour of the Hunter Museum.  “Painting the Head in Oil” is expected to fill up quickly, so pre-registration is required.  Fee: $450
