Upcoming Workshop Schedule

*** Special Summer 2011 Event ***


August 1 - 27, 2011  4 - Week Academic Summer Figure and Landscape Workshop

Teachers from the Grand Central Academy, The Florence Acaademy of Art and the Angel Academy of Art will be at the CAS to teach a 4 - week Figure and Landscape Workshop.


 

Learn Academic Principles, Techniques and Methods from leading artists and teachers from the TOP 3 Academies in the World. Teachers from the Florence Academy of Art, Angel Academy of Art and the Grand Central Academy will be converging at the CAS for a one-time only workshop event.

For 4 weeks in August the Center for Academic Study & Naturalist Painting (CAS) will be hosting figure and landscape workshops that will be taught by leading fine artists. Teachers from the top 3 Academies in the world will be on hand to teach students academic principles and methods. Students will spend 5 hours a day, 6 days a week working from a live model in the studio.  Students will receive daily critiques from teachers. Students will get a chance to immerse themselves in an academic conversation that brings the ideals of all the major academies together.

In addition to the figure, students will have a chance to study the landscape alongside these instructors. Every Thursday, Friday and Saturday of each week, we will be heading out to paint the landscape. Most of the instructors have spent time at the Hudson River School for Landscape and so have much to offer in terms of methods and principles of landscape painting. Students will get a chance to experience the beauty of the Utah landscape, extending the academic conversation to a broader application.

 

The list of distinguished instructors is as follows:

Angela Cunningham from the Grand Central Academy

Gregory Mortenson from the Grand Central Academy

Travis Seymour from the Angel Academy Art

Nancy Fletcher from the Angel Academy Art and the Grand Central Academy

Ryan S. Brown from the Florence Academy of Art

Jesus Villareal from the Florence Academy of Art

Jordan Sokol from the Florence Academy of Art

Deadlines: Students who wish to reserve their spots must pay a deposit of half their tuition by June 1, 2011. It is suggested that those wishing to reserve a spot do so before this date, as their tuition deposit acts as their registration and the only way of securing their position in the workshop. If for some reason a student must withdraw their registration, all requests for a refund will be granted if requested before July 1, 2011. No refunds will be issued on or after July 1, 2011 as this leaves us little time to fill that vacancy. A final payment of the remaining balance for a student’s tuition will be due also on or before July 1, 2011.
