Saluda Artist Offers Workshop
January 22 - 24 Jim Carson, Saluda artist, will offer a workshop titled "Getting Perspective Right in order to Paint Fast and Loose." Jim will be joined by Chris Sherry, an AIA architect, who teaches perspective at Johns Creek Art Center and Quinlan Visual Art Center in Atlanta.
Chris will conduct the first day of the workshop, consisting entirely of drawing. Jim will teach the application of these drawing skills to achieve loose and spontaneous paintings during the following 2 days.
The workshop will be held in Jim's studio, located above the Saluda Grade Café in Saluda, and is open to all levels of painters from beginners to advanced. Jim will do a demonstration on Saturday, and there will be a critique of the day's work at the end of each day. There will be a "get acquainted" gathering at Jim's studio on Thursday night, January 20.
The cost of the workshop is $300 and will include lunch each day, catered by the Saluda Grade Café. This workshop was sold out last January. For more information, contact Jim at 828-749-3702 or visit jimcarson.net or email jimcarson@tds.net.
