BYOB and join us for an evening of self expression through paint! No paint-by-numbers, no pressure to be perfect. The workshop will start with a simple still-life and progress from there. Participants will be encouraged to work at their own pace, and in their own style. No experience necessary; if you've never picked up a paintbrush, make this the first time! All supplies included. (Remember, BYOB!)

Instructor: Laura Anechiarico
Laura Anechiarico
Biography:
Laura Anechiarico earned her Masters in Teaching, Visual Arts, from Manhattanville College and earned a BA in Art from the University of Texas in Austin. She also studied at The Art Students League in Manhattan. Laura is working on a series of illustrations for a childrens? book to be published in 2015, and her fine art work is represented by Gallery 52 in Rye, NY. Of her years at The Art Students League, she writes ?For three years I studied with many instructors from The Students Arts League. To prepare for each new incoming instructor, I painted in a style in which they could best critique, and in turn, in which I could learn the most from each teacher and their style. From portraiture with Oldrich Tepley; to the Russian and European figurative realism I learned from Leonid Gervitz; to color, rhythm and the action painting of Kenneth McIndoe; I studied their work, and how they taught it. When I met Knox Martin at the League, I wrote down everything he said and studied his lectures. His classes intellectually allowed me to navigate what art is, and to read deeper into art, learning that in order to make art, I had to challenge myself to create something new, and to reveal something in it that is also invigorating.
