COURSE DESCRIPTIONS – The Safehouse Atelier Cast Drawing – Cast drawing uses the antique casts in order to explore fundamental issues of light and form. Developing strategies to render accurate proportions using a “block-in” method are thoroughly covered so that drawings are true to life. Artists will also be trained to understand the conceptual underpinnings of the visual phenomenon observed so that the lessons may be understood and applied to imaginative work. Cast Painting - Building upon the lessons of Cast Drawing, artists will take those concepts and utilize them in the medium of oil paint. Technical aspects of the medium are covered so that the artist has a sound understanding of materials. Figure Drawing - The time honored practice of drawing from the nude is approached in a classical manner building upon lessons learned from Cast Drawing and Gesture Drawing. Emphasis is placed on accurately rendering the human form in proportion and in modeling.

How to Make Mindfulness a Habit With Only a Tiny Commitment When you sit back and reminisce about your life, it’s almost a given that the most enjoyable and memorable moments are the ones in which you were completely present. Do you look back with fondness all the times you spent thinking about work while you drove home, or pondered dinner while you wheeled down the frozen aisle? Unfortunately most of life passes that way for most of us. We’re in one place doing one thing, thinking of things we aren’t doing and places we aren’t at. The bottom line of almost all self-help, spiritual, or religious literature is that our ability to be happy is determined by our ability to stay in the present moment. Only when we’re present do we see beauty, enjoy gratitude, and experience happiness. We all know this already. The problem is most of us are extremely habituated to living in our thoughts. The rule about habits is that whatever you do most takes over. Baby steps seem to be in order. Establishing a Foothold First of all, forget about staying mindful 24-7.
The Art of Disney Animation Chroniques du chapeau noir Living Lines Library Elzo Durt Elzo Durt (from Belgium) is not a musician but his work flow it’s like a dj, he is a genius to mixed pop art, surrealism, digitalism, comics style, and psychedelic art of 60s and 70s. His art is “computer pasting” so he spend a lot of time costantly has to renew his picture database, find new images in old book, magazine, medical studies, botanical illustrator, etc. He scan them, paste them togheter, create a coherent composition, after he add color, detail after detail. The last step is silk-screen printing, a technique that allows he to obtain very bight color. Throught his characters and their grotesque surrounding, he examines the relationship between life and death. www.elzo.be
Comment exposer l’architecture ? - Le Quotidien de l'Art À l’occasion de la Biennale d’architecture de Venise, visible jusqu’au 25 novembre, du succès fulgurant de la rétrospective Junya Ishigami à la Fondation Cartier, ou encore de la sublime exposition « UAM » au Centre Pompidou, tour d’horizon des solutions trouvées pour séduire néophytes et connaisseurs du bâti. C’était une première, c’est un succès. En consacrant la totalité de ses espaces d’exposition à Junya Ishigami, architecte encore peu connu, la Fondation Cartier prenait un risque. Elle sait aujourd’hui qu’elle a eu raison. Devant l’affluence du public, les installations du maître d’œuvre japonais resteront en place trois mois de plus que prévu. Sans doute le caractère poétique, l’originalité et la variété des projets présentés, l’osmose entre les maquettes impressionnantes et les effets de transparence voulus par Jean Nouvel pour le bâtiment de la Fondation expliquent-ils cet engouement. Multiforme et attrape-tout Est-ce ainsi qu’il faut exposer l’architecture ?
