AUGUST 23 - ART SCHOOL OPEN HOUSE!!

 


BOCA RATON MUSEUM OF ART SCHOOL HOSTING
OPEN HOUSE TO PREVIEW FALL CLASSES
  
Calling all artists, don’t miss the upcoming Open House at the Boca Raton Museum of Art – The Art School.
 
This free annual will be held Saturday, August 23, from 1-4 p.m. at the school located at 801 West Palmetto Park Road, one mile east of 1-95.
 
Visitors will be able to view the faculty exhibit and meet the artists-teachers’ in the art studios and discuss their classes.
 “We have, perhaps, the finest faculty in South Florida,” said Walter O’Neill, director. “Potential students will be able to visit with these teachers to get a preview of the classes and to see some of the outstanding artwork being produced by the faculty.”
 
The Art School offers a wide range of classes in virtually every medium and discipline for beginners to experienced artists. Classes are offered in portraiture, still life and landscape painting, as well as photography, pottery, collage, jewelry making and sculpture, among many others.   Award-winning teachers lead classes in oil, watercolor, acrylic, and drawing, to name just a few.
 
“This is a perfect time to meet the teachers and learn more about the adult art classes,” added O’Neill. “Visitors will be able to visit the studios and see short demonstrations on making pottery, stone carving, print making, and other techniques.”
 

 

There will be a free raffle to win $100 discount on an art course. Each person who signs up for a class during Open House receives a one-day pass for two at the Boca Raton Museum of Art.

STUDENT ART SHOWCASE 2013-2014


Here are a number of terrific paintings by you,
my wonderful, talented students, 
completed during this past school year. 

Please let me know
if one of your paintings
is missing from this showcase,
and simply email an image of it to me
for inclusion in this special post!
 
The artists who created these works were
both seasoned painters as well as newcomers. 



 
As you will see,
the artists used either acrylic, pastel or oils,
and they certainly employed
a number of different painting styles.

Most of all, they all shared
their common love of painting!
  

 












 




 





 







 




 



 

 
 
 




 
 
 




 
 
 
 







 
 Although I tried to photograph and post all paintings
completed in class, I may have missed a few.
 
Note to my students:
If you don't see your painting among those presented,
I'll be happy to add images of additional works. 
 
  Simply email your images to me,
and I will upload them to this post.
 
Warmest regards,
Diane
