SUMMARY:10/05/2024 Intro to Printmaking Workshop with Jodi Doster
DESCRIPTION:October 5th \n1pm – 6pm \nAges 16+ \n$150\, $130 Members \nLearn the basics of printmaking in this afternoon workshop! Discover the importance of positive and negative space when designing your print. Sketch your designs and transfer them to your printing block for carving. This class is suitable for people aged 16+ since we will be using sharp cutting tools. \nIn printmaking\, students will make copies of an image that they have created from various sources of their choosing. They will then transfer the image and use carving on soft linoleum blocks or impressing the design in styrofoam\, or foam board and transfer the image onto a new surface. Students will use ink or paint to transfer images. Students will create an Andy Warhol style print using two to three linoleum cuts positive and negative carvings or multiple block method. Colored inks will be used when printing by utilizing a registration method. We will cover the different techniques and tools used to create prints including gelli-plates to create prints that can be used for collage\, card making\, and art notebooks. \nIncludes all materials. \n \n \nMy name is Jodi Doster and I spent 21 years teaching science and art at Bristol Bay Borough Middle/High School in Naknek\, Alaska. I also was an Adjunct Professor for the University of Alaska Fairbanks BBC teaching biology and many art classes including watercolor\, drawing\, and ceramics. My teaching philosophy is a hands-on approach utilizing demonstration then working alongside students to create original pieces. I find working alongside students while discussing my process and thoughts helps students if they are stuck. I provide guidance to help students with learning new techniques and developing their own style. I am influenced by science and nature in my own artwork. I love color and have been inspired by the impressionism artists. I have been so inspired by them that I even named my dog Monet after one of my favorite impressionists! \nREFUND AND CANCELLATION POLICY \n

SUMMARY:10/2024 Beginning Watercolor with Alan Lewis
DESCRIPTION:Sundays\, 10am-12pm \nOctober 6\, 13\, 20\, 27th \n$120 ($100 Members) ($90 to skip beginners day) \nThe first day of the months’ session is for anyone who is just starting out or needs more guidance. I would recommend that you attend if you’re a first time student of this class! \n\nThis beginning watercolor class will be focused on producing finished work.  I have noticed that I have learned best when following along painting with an artist\, so that is the approach this class will follow. We will produce a finished painting each week with a different subject\, and returning students are welcomed.  The approach will be to paint fast and loose\, to cover the basics of watercolor by doing them\, and hopefully to have some fun. The first day is for beginners who need to learn the starting techniques and the materials.\n\nIn the event of wonderful weather\, this class may go outside to paint! Be sure to bring sunscreen\, a sunhat\, or other item to protect you and make you comfortable.\n\n\nAlan Lewis has been painting in watercolor since 2013\, and usually paints every day.  His subjects vary from portraits to pets to landscapes\, and he enjoys painting plein air whenever possible.  His paintings are looser and more impressionistic\, rather than highly detailed\, and he has been most significantly influenced by the watercolor master Alvaro Castagnet.  A member of the Wallkill River School\, Goshen Art League\, Lower Hudson Valley Plein Air Painters\, and Northeast Watercolor\, he has also recently been awarded for art done with the Friends of the Great Swamp.\n\nStudents will bring their own supplies.\nMinimum 3 Students.\n    \n\n\n\nPaper- I would recommend Strathmore 300 (or better but a little more expensive 400) series\, cold press paper.\nBrushes – A beginner kit might have 1 #10 round\, one smaller brush for detail\, and one larger flat or map brush of about an inch. It is nice to have some different sizes\, but you don’t need expensive brushes to start.\nPaint – Avoid chalky mediums like Reeves. Tubes will be easier to work with than pans.\nPalette – A watercolor palette has many wells for your paint and space to mix colors.\nOther – Not really necessary in this class\, but will be useful at home- A hairdryer\, painters tape\, paper towels\, etc.\n\n\nREFUND AND CANCELLATION POLICY

SUMMARY:10/26/2024 Freeform Wire Wrapped Gemstone Pendant with Janet Baskerville
DESCRIPTION:Saturday October 26th \n10:00am – 12:00pm \nAt the Wallkill River Center for the Arts \n$60\, $55 Members \nThis is a fun energetic beginner wire wrapping class in which you will learn my method of freeform wire wrapping a tumbled gemstone with silver plated wire. You will have a large assortment of colorful gemstones to choose from. \nNo special skills or tools required\, just come prepared to have some fun and learn a new skill. All supplies provided. \nArtist Statement: My ethnic heritage and experiences are my greatest influences.  I enjoy working three dimensionally\, as it is an intuitive process.  Jewelry is my passion and I like the tactile nature of combining various methods of construction\, such as forging metal\, stamping and etching metal\, wire wrapping and weaving\, beading\, resin casting and the inclusion of relic-like found objects and artifacts. I enjoy mixed-media collage and use paint\, paper\, fabric\, fibers\, resin\, wood and clay in my work as well. I am fascinated with the results when a combination of these materials and methods comes together in a completed piece to evoke a one of a kind ethnic feeling that tells a story. \nREFUND AND CANCELLATION POLICY

SUMMARY:10/24 Intro to Oil with Donna Prizzi
DESCRIPTION:October 29th & November 5 & 12th \nTuesdays\, 10am – 12pm \nAt the Wallkill River Center for the Arts \n$120\, $105 Members \n$130\, $115 Members to include first day painting materials \nTap into your creativity through painting!  If you ever wanted to paint\, but didn’t know where to start\, this class will introduce you to the process of painting with oil paint.  You’ll learn the fundamentals of setting up your palette\, reviewing materials\, color theory and the basic elements of painting. Each week there will be time for individual instruction.  We will be working from the still life and on occasion photographs.  So\, come join us in a friendly\, relaxed atmosphere where art is the perfect way to unwind and find the freedom to enjoy your inner creativity! \nFirst time  students may select the ticket option with materials included for the first day of class.  The additional $10 will include a canvas panel and use of paints\, brushes\, etc. The instructor will review materials with students so they will be prepared to buy their own supplies for the remaining sessions. \nBelow is a list of suggested art supplies\, if you already have oil paint and paint brushes please bring them on the first day of class and we can review your material then. \n  \nSupply List: \nOnline Stores\nwww.jerrysartarama.com \nwww.cheapjoes.com \nwww.dickblick.com\nAmazon\nLocal Stores: Newburgh Art Supply and Michaels \nSUPPORT/SURFACE:\nEither: Canvas Board or Stretched Canvas: (Sizes to choose from: 8”x10” – 9”x12” – 11”x14” ).\n* For first day have one of these recommended sizes. \nPALETTE:\nA wood palette is highly recommended over recessed and disposable palettes. The warm wood tone is better for accuracy in mixing color.\nOR:\na gray-toned paper palette. \nBRUSHES:\nOil painting requires durable brushes that will stand up to repeated use and the effects of oils\, varnishes and cleaning solvents. There are 6 different brush shapes: rounds\, flats\, brights\, filberts\, fan blenders and riggers. Bristle flats and filberts are strong and the most versatile to use. Fan blenders are used to feather wet paint and soften brushstrokes. Riggers are synthetic sable hair and are used for fine detail. It is ideal to have 2 brushes\, in 5 to 6 different sizes (ex. #2\, #4\, #6\, #8\, #10 and a few different sized fan blenders). But one of each for now is fine. Although\, If you have brushes already you can bring those in instead for now and we’ll go over them. \nPAINT:\nI recommend the use of quality oil pigments but you can use the most affordable oil paint that you can find. A student grade is fine as well. Colors for the palette are as follows :\n1- Titanium White\n2- Yellow Ochre\n3- CadmiumYellow Light\n4- Cadmium Yellow Deep\n5- Cadmium Red Light\n6- Alizarin Crimson\n7- Burnt Umber\n8- Viridian\n9- Cobalt Blue\n10- Ultramarine Blue\n11- Ivory Black\n*This numerical list is how to ‘string’ your palette using the order in which the paints appear above. \nTools and Mediums for Oil Painting: \nSmall Jar of Refined Linseed Oil \nOdorless Turpentine \nMetal or Glass Solvent Cups: to use for your mediums while painting. \n  \n \nBiography: \nDonna Prizzi was born in New York City and currently resides in the Hudson Valley.  She studied fine art at SUNY Westchester Arts Center and SUNY New Paltz.  She also studied decorative painting at the Isabel O’Neil Studio in New York.  She is an award winning and classically trained artist and has participated in many juried exhibitions\, invitational group shows\,  and plein-air paint events. \ndonnaprizzifineart.com \n  \nREFUND AND CANCELLATION POLICY

SUMMARY:Jena Argenta:  Love Letters
DESCRIPTION:An exhibit of new works by Jena Argenta.  On view November 1st through December 15th.   Artists Reception Saturday\, November 9\, 2024 3-5:00 pm. Receptions are always free and open to the public.  Artist talk on December 15th.  The gallery is open to the public Fridays\, Saturdays\, and Sundays from 12:00-5:00 pm or by appointment. \nMulti-hyphenate\, language-based artist Jena Argenta will bring her most recent work in progress to Wallkill River Center for the Arts (WRCA) in stages beginning November 1\, 2024. The show titled LOVE LETTERS will feature work produced with funds from a 2024 Individual Artist grant. \n“How do you write a love letter in American Ink? is an intentionally fraught question— but it’s also the one we’re faced with\,” states Argenta. \nThe artist continues\, “The works presented here aren’t an answer to the question – they’re an attempt at asking. They’re a way of using multiple art forms as a way toward that asking. Works here were born in dialogue with community voices\, as well as historical\, literary\, and often banned or unrequited “lovers”. \n“In many parts of the world\, calligraphy is the highest art. Calligraphic forms & traditions are “love letters” in the deepest sense. In this series\, I seek to bend my own vantage point\, hand\, and English with brush\, reed\, sentiment\, and the use of empty space.” \nArgenta is a world-traveled artist\, whose vast experiences and adventures include apprenticeships in Arabic Calligraphy with Elinor Aishah Holland in NY and Ahmet Bursali in Istanbul. Her visual work has been privately and commercially commissioned internationally as well as in the US. Her Kimono designs walked the red carpet at the Fez Music Festival in Morocco. \n“We are so pleased to be able to provide gallery space for Jena to bring this unique and deeply felt work to the public. It comes to us\nin increments\, starting with several works on display during our regularly scheduled artists’ reception on November 9th and culminating in additional works and an artist’s talk (on) December 15th” says Sarah Fortner Pierson\, WRCA executive director. \n\nThis project is made possible with funds from the Statewide Community Regrants Program\, a program of the New York Council on the Arts with the support of the Office of the Governor and the New York State Legislature and administered by Arts Mid-Hudson. \n  \n
