  5:30–8:00 pm

  Instructor:  Sya Ryn

  Ages 16+ Are you stuck on an art project, or just need to get out of the house and into a shared creative space to reset? What you need is a creative group studio session. Sya Ryn, local artist, invites you to Art it Up on bi-weekly Thursdays, to get your creative juices flowing in a new way, surrounded by other creatives doing their thing.

  Bring a current project, whether it’s something brand new or has been paused or sometime, and whatever supplies you need. Sya will offer expertise in anime, cartoon, abstract, pencil sketch, color theory, watercolor, acrylic, and multimedia approaches as you create. Sya’s goal as an instructor is to foster a creative and therapeutic environment, to have fun, build skills, and to share a passion for learning and creative exploration with her students.

  Registration REQUIRED two day before each individual session.
  Minimum Registration per session: 2

  Let's let loose with alcohol ink, the new fluid medium on the block! Learn how to LET GO and let the ideas flow while playing with vibrant colors, allowing no boundaries to limit how this medium takes over your canvas…or your hands! In this 3-session course, you will work (and play) with alcohol inks on ceramic tile, Yupo paper, and a stretched canvas. You will complete 3 unique and vibrant pieces in this class series with the guidance of Cristi Hopp Kniess as you learn how this high flow medium acts and reacts on various surfaces with various tools. All supplies provided.

We will discuss preparing paper to paint, brushes and their technique, some color theory — but mostly we will jump in the water, and do it!
