Mixed Media Faces: Fun and Fantasy

Two more Thursdays, February 20 & 27, 2020 -- 10AM - 1PM

Every Thursday, join Jacki Long for a project focused on creating a unique portrait. Use fabric, collage, acrylic, watercolor, paint markers, and more during this fun class. Each session, experiment with a different technique and combine as many mediums as you wish. All materials provided.

REGISTRATION: $45 per session. Ages 16+. Skill level: All.

Limited seats are available for these classes, so sign up today!

In last Thursday's class, the class worked on a 12x12"

wood substrate as seen in Day 2758, here.

As usual, we start class with a warm-up activity.

This time it was a quick portrait on 12x18" heavy paper.

I did a 5-minute demo using both gesso & graphite on

brick-colored paper, using a long-handled medium 1" brush.

I mixed a skin tone acrylic, letting the paper show through.

Not pretty, but fun and it was loose and had promise.

No need to finish then, as we moved to the wood.

Thursday (02/20/2020)we will be working on 16 x 16" canvas.
My goal is always a relaxed, fun class for the artists.

Please come join us if you can?

A smile for Tuesday ...

We started with some loosening up exercises and laughs.

We talked about face composition, and playing with it.

We moved on to spritzing the graphite drawing, then adding acrylics and or even junk mail for accents. Artists were encouraged to play with proportions and appreciate the difference.

Just playing and experimenting.

New Louis Vuitton in Osaka, Japan Pays Homage to City’s Port History With Billowing Facade

On February 1, 2020, Louis Vuitton opened the new Osaka Midosuji store. Although not necessarily a flagship, the new location, designed by Jun Aoki, is Japan’s largest and features a façade reminiscent of a ship’s mast and sails billowing in the wind. The elegant, intriguing design is inspired by Osaka’s history as a port town. During the 1600s, shipping agents were established in Osaka and distinctive cargo vessels known as Ishigaki-kaizen transported sake and with other goods to Tokyo.

Architect Jun Aoki has been responsible for almost all of the luxury retailer’s Japan locations, as well as several international locations like New York and Hong Kong. Inside the Osaka Location’s dramatic façade, the building is comprised of 7 floors, the first 4 of which are designed by the NY-based interior designer Peter Marino. Above that, the Osaka Louis Vuitton will house their first-ever café & restaurant, produced by renowned chef Yosuke Suga.
