SUMMARY:Drawing Maine: Still Life in Colored Pencil
DESCRIPTION:In this still life drawing workshop\, participants will explore
  the foundations of using colored pencils to build rich\, dimensional colo
 r through thoughtful layering. Working from a Maine themed still life set 
 up\, class members will learn how to gradually develop hue\, value\, and t
 exture using colored pencils. Artist instructor Suzy Kopf will cover a var
 iety of techniques including burnishing\, blending\, and color mixing dire
 ctly on the paper to create depth and luminosity. Special attention will b
 e given to observing subtle shifts in shadow\, highlight\, and reflected c
 olor.\n\nThis class is ideal for beginners as well as artists looking to s
 trengthen their drawing practice with colored pencil. By the end of the se
 ssion\, you’ll leave with a finished study and a clear understanding of 
 how to create depth through layered color in this exciting\, and extremely
  approachable medium. All materials are included.\n\n    \n\nInstructor In
 fo - Suzy Kopf is a multidisciplinary artist who scrutinizes the paper eph
 emera of midcentury consumer culture to probe the enduring mythos of the A
 merican Dream. Through water media paintings\, collages and site-specific 
 installations she excavates archival materials and inherited nostalgia for
  utopias erected and cast aside. Vibrant colors unify her work across medi
 a and evoke the built landscape of the eroding Silicon Valley where she gr
 ew up. Conscious of how much byproduct can result from art-production\, Su
 zy maintains a “no waste” practice\, recycling materials back into her
  work and making her own paint from botanical materials.\n\nSuzy has been 
 the recipient of more than a dozen residency fellowships including the Oak
  Spring Garden Foundation\, Kala and The Studios at Mass MoCA. Her art pra
 ctice has been funded by the Hagley Museum\, Baltimore National Heritage A
 rea\, the Maryland Institute College of Art (MICA) and the Design History 
 Society\, among others.\n\nIn addition to her studio work\, Suzy is passio
 nate about helping other artists achieve their professional goals and gene
 rate sustainable income. She has been an invited speaker at the College Ar
 t Association\, The CUE Art Foundation\, Artists Thrive Conference\, and t
 he Maryland State Art Council\, among others. From 2015-2024 she was a con
 tributing writer for several publications and organizations including the 
 Baltimore Museum of Art\, Johns Hopkins University Magazine\, Artwork Arch
 ive\, Baltimore Magazine\, BmoreArt and others.\n\nSuzy has exhibited thro
 ughout the United States and Canada including the Turchin Center\, Delawar
 e Contemporary\, Spring/Break Art Fair and the Austrian Embassy in Washing
 ton\, D.C. She holds an MFA from MICA.\n\nFormerly a college professor tea
 ching watercolor painting\, professional development and museum studies at
  Johns Hopkins University\, Maryland Institute College of Art and Anne Aru
 ndel Community College\, Suzy is now exclusively working with adult learne
 rs and focusing on her own studio practice. In 2023 after sixteen years on
  the east coast\, Suzy and her partner moved home to San Francisco to be c
 loser to family. They enjoy walking the San Francisco hills with their two
  rescue pups\, Theodore Roosevelt and Penny Lane.\n\n\nhttps://www.artwave
