OCTC Holding Art Workshops
Printmaking and Oil Pastel Drawing
Owensboro, KY (03/02/2022) — OCTC's art faculty, John Schartung, has designed a pair of workshops for the novice: beginning printmaking and drawing with oil pastels.
"Both of the workshops provide a fun way to customize a gift for any occasion, hand printed cards and prints are a meaningful keepsake and a great way to express your creativity. These workshops are something that I get requests for and I thought spring is a fabulous time to release your inner creative side" added David Wilson, OCTC's art program coordinator.
Each workshop meets for three Saturday sessions, and a registration fee of $93.50 per workshop, which includes all supplies. No experience is required, just a desire to learn. The workshops are open to ages 16 and up, and will be held at OCTC's Downtown Campus, Art Studio Room 25, located at 1501 Frederica Street, Owensboro. Participants should utilize the entry off of the back parking lot, Daviess Street.
Beginning Printmaking: April 9, 16 and 23 from 9 a.m. - 12 noon: No experience necessary, all supplies included. This workshop is an introduction to relief printmaking. Students will learn how to print cards and edition prints. Participants will learn techniques that may be used to print at home.
Drawing with Oil Pastels: April 9, 16, and 23 from 1:30 p.m. - 4:30 p.m. No experience necessary, which includes all supplies. This workshop will introduce you to oil pastels, explore their versatility, refine drawing skills, and use a variety of papers.
