Description

Join us for this pop-up art class offered by the Mystic Museum of Art Outreach Program to complement the Celebrating Cultural Heritage through Art lecture series. Use found objects to do a 'quick study' of a mother. Using traditional portraits of women as your inspiration, you may render one of the paintings in your own fashion, or honor someone you know by making them the subject. (If you choose to depict someone you know, consider bringing a trinket that reminds you of that person to be included in your piece). Materials will vary widely. Meredith Andrews, noted local Fiber Artist and Lead Outreach Teacher at the Mystic Museum of Art, will instruct this workshop. It is an hour long and beginner-friendly. All supplies will be provided. Registration is required to attend this program. Image: Artemisia Gentileschi, Self-Portrait as the Allegory of Painting, 1639. Royal Trust Collection, UK.
