Real and Imagined: A Master Painting Class with Illustrator Gregory Manchess
February 3, from 10 a.m. to 3 p.m.

Following a full-house class in January, we are delighted to offer another session with Gregory Manchess.  The award-winning illustrator, known for his work for National Geographic and the new Coen Brothers film The Ballad of Buster Scruggs, believes in communicating emotionally with the viewer through his art. Manchess will lead participants in an exploration of the art of realist painting inspired by the imagination, as shown in his first fully painted novel Above the Timberline, the subject of the Museum’s current exhibition. Light and shadow, color strategies, figure construction, and tonal design will be discussed and demonstrated.

All levels are welcome. Supply list provided, download here…

*Please note, the class is already 50% subscribed, from previous waiting list; limited spaces remain. Please register asap.

Admission to the one day art workshop is $45, $35 for Museum members, and advance registration is required.

 

Land Acknowledgement

It is with gratitude and humility that we acknowledge that we are learning, speaking and gathering on the ancestral homelands of the Mohican people, who are the indigenous peoples of this land on which the Norman Rockwell Museum was built. Despite tremendous hardship in being forced from here, today their community resides in Wisconsin and is known as the Stockbridge-Munsee Community. We pay honor and respect to their ancestors past and present as we commit to building a more inclusive and equitable space for all.
