As we come to the one year anniversary of reopening our doors, The Art Guild has created a “Thank You” Exhibit for the dedicated board members, studio artists and instructors, who stuck by us and helped us through the process. This show celebrates their hard work and dedication.

A range of styles and materials runs the gamut – from very traditional landscapes in oil to sculpture and printmaking to modern abstract mixed media.

A potluck reception will be held on Wednesday July 22 from 6:30 – 8:30 pm.

Watercolor is a truly diverse medium. Explore techniques – learn washes, wet on wet painting, glazing and dry brush methods. We will begin to understand the properties of pigments and when to use them properly.

More advanced students move beyond the basics, creating a series of more complex paintings and completing their own interpretations of projects presented in class.

Watercolor is always challenging, fresh and new.

About Howard Rose:
Howard Rose has been painting with oils since 1989. He teaches privately and at The Art League of Long Island, the National Art League in Douglaston and has given many workshops at The Art Guild.

“It certainly was and is an exciting journey to become an artist and see the world through an artist’s eye. I love the challenge of turning an everyday scene into a successful and exciting painting. Inventing new shapes and colors, tweaking the design and making it read as you envisioned.

“What an honor it is for me to work with all of my students (in all my classes).  They teach me art, we solve world problems, and we share the struggles to get it right. Most important is the opening of their souls to other artists… a most vulnerable and special part of their lives.”
