Do you have a digital camera that you’ve
never even taken out of the box? Or one
that you use, but don’t really understand?
Join Bill Peal, Camera Demystifier, to learn
easy techniques for getting more out of
your camera. He’ll show you everything
from how to set the date to how to use
macro focus to get beautiful flower photos.
Arlen will share his unique approach to
painting portraits, using lots of color and
making up the composition as you go.
Students’ resulting pieces will be fun, loose
and expressive portraits or self-portraits.
This class will focus on how to express
mood and feelings through use of color,
exaggeration and distortion. We’ll focus
on narrative and symbolism rather than
traditional painting techniques, although
a certain amount of that will be covered
too. Students with all levels of painting
experience are welcome to attend.

be provided including stained glass, glass
objects, picture frames, glue, safety glasses
and rubber coated gloves. Students supply
your own glass nippers; Tammy will have
them available for $15 on the first night of

loop method. We’ll use
basic sock patterns found online and dress
them up with color work, stripes, solid
colors – the decoration and sock length is
up to you! At the first class, Nikii will show

each style and then you and your wallet
can decide what you want to make over the
remainder of the class. Students should be
comfortable working in the round and be
able to do the knit and purl stitches.
