Held in a well-lit artist's studio in Singleyrac (nr Sigoules), these classes are designed to enable both beginners as well as intermediate artists to receive individual attention to develop their skills under the tutelage of a professional artist.
Se déroulant dans un atelier d’artiste lumineux à Singleyrac (proche de Sigoulès), ces cours ont vocation à permettre aux débutants et aux artistes plus confirmés de développer leurs compétences à l’aide d’un accompagnement individualisé par une artiste professionnelle.
The size of the classes is limited to 6 students, and there is space available to work either seated at a table, or alternatively at an easel. The classes will focus on figurative painting but creative interpretation will be encouraged.
Le nombre d’élèves est limité à 6 par classe. Il y a ainsi beaucoup d’espace pour travailler sur une table, ou en utilisant un chevalet. Les cours porteront avant tout sur la peinture figurative, mais l’interprétation créative sera également encouragée.
The tutor, Cathy Savels, is a mixed media artist, and thus any medium can be taught, including but not limited to watercolours, acrylics or oil. Tuition will be adapted to suit the individual. You'll be taught how to progress from direct observation and studies to creating a free and intuitive, yet artistically coherent, response to your subject. You will also be able to discover new ways of combining materials that will expand your painting vocabulary as well as experimenting with new techniques to create even-more dynamic compositions.
Cathy Savels, qui enseignera ces cours, est une artiste en média mixte, et peut ainsi former à plusieurs médiums, comme l'aquarelle, à l’acrylique ou à l’huile, entre autres. L’accompagnement sera adapté aux besoins de chacun. Vous serez formés à passer de l’observation directe d’un sujet à une réponse plus libre mais qui reste cohérente sur le plan artistique. Vous découvrirez également de nouvelles combinaisons de techniques de manière à faire progresser votre vocabulaire artistique, de même qu’expérimenter avec de nouvelles techniques pour créer des œuvres encore plus dynamiques.

I came across these paper bird sculptures and was totally amazed. We are not talking origami here. The Colombian artist has created paper sculptures of more than 100 species, and they are startlingly realistic. It's quite mind blowing that these are made out of simple colored paper.
You can find more amazing paper sculptures by this artist here.
I discovered this artist a while back and often refer back to her paintings. The simple reason is that as far as injecting light into a still life, these are some of the best I've seen. Because I work mainly on textures, ie string and fabric, it is very difficult to achieve this kind of effect and it is something I struggle with. I think you'll agree that these are a feast for the eyes. Enjoy!
Please go and visit this artist's website here for more amazing paintings.
I am currently working on a tree lichen series of works constructed in polymer clay. I am constantly looking for inspiration on how other artists produce 3 dimensional works on canvas and came across the amazing work of Amanda Smith.
Amanda Smith's work is comprised of hand-built and slip-cast clay, which is then painted with layers of ceramic underglazes, glazes, oil paint and hanging hardware.
Looking at these ceramic pieces, I am pleasantly reminded of the work of Henry Darger. But of course, Smith has her own style and her own medium–that is not Darger’s. I can appreciate the influence, nonetheless. What a marvel of detail and imaginary scenery these ceramics reveal!
