February Spotlight

We still have two more great events left in this short month; come by and learn something new!
BUSINESS: The Business of Exhibiting with Ray Pfortner
Sat, February 26th
pacificnorthwestartschool.com









Behind every visual artists are twin passions – to create and to share what they create. Public exhibitions are a perfect way to satisfy the second passion – to get feedback, to sell work and secure commissions, and in turn to encourage more creation. But where to exhibit? How to approach a venue? What terms including commissions are involved? How to price? How to promote? What signage to include? How to hang? How to handle sales tax? Explore all these considerations and more. This program is invaluable for visual artists working in all media, whether considering your first show or your fiftieth.
FREE SPECIAL EXTENDED DEMO: 11-2 PM

February Artist Workshop Schedule for Bellevue DANIEL SMITH Store

WATERCOLOR:
Improving on Reality with Ann Breckon
Sun & Mon, February 6th and 7th
annbreckon.com

This two day workshop will focus on multiple ways artists can paint more than they see. There are times when reality is so enchanting it serves as the perfect inspiration for successful art, but usually our work as creators is to be inspired by a subject and use it as a jumping off point to make what we see better when we paint it. Come learn how to move mountains, improve color, make smarter designs, create mood, tell a story and take your art to the next level. The subject of the painting will be a landscape and reference photos will be provided.
