Going To The Dogs!

Instructor Kathleen Kuchar
Class meets Saturday March 1
9:00am to 4:00pm at Kathleen Kuchar’s Studio
Cost is $57 for HAC members and $60 for non-members
Enrollment is limited to a maximum of 8 students

Kathleen Kuchar, Professor Emeritus - Fort Hays State University, will be teaching a painting/collage workshop that will result in artwork containing imagery of your favorite four-legged friend (or bird or fish!).  If you don’t have a pet or don’t wish to work with animal imagery, you can make a collage of an “old dog” (one of your ‘unresolved’ paintings).   

Necessary supplies include acrylic paints & brushes (bring what you have, otherwise Kathleen will share some of hers), canvas or canvas board – 5x7, 8x10, 9x12, or 11x14 are recommended (Kathleen will have a variety of sizes you can purchase from her that day).  You’ll also want to bring black & white or color photocopies of your pet for the collage as well as some actual photographs to be used for reference.   And, you can bring one of your “old dog” paintings to the workshop if you want to use it for your collage painting.  And – wear your grubbies!
