Nina Weiss    May 27 – June 2, 2007 (Five Teaching Days)
Naked Color — Multi Media

Strip away the mysteries of color and color usage in your art! This informative and useful workshop will begin with scientific and psychological insights into color and color theory. Using water based paints, colored pencils and colored papers, students will learn about color relationships and harmonies. Relationships between colors, color relativity, value, and contrast will be studied so that students can readily apply color theory in their art practices. Color strategies will be applied in several finished compositions throughout the workshop. Nina’s workshop uses visual examples, hands on mixing, and plenty of one-on-one instruction to strengthen your learning experience.

Nina is passionate about color, and has taught Color Strategies, painting, and drawing at the School of the Art Institute in Chicago, the Evanston Art Center, Columbia College, and in many workshops throughout the Midwest. Her landscape paintings and drawings have been included in the US Government Art in Embassies Program, and many corporate collections including United Airlines, Hyatt Hotels, McDonalds, Marriot, and Embassy Suites. She is represented by galleries throughout the Midwest, and was chosen as Artist in Residence at Acadia National Park in the summer of 2005. You can see her art in several Hollywood films, and in hotel rooms across America.

Past Workshops students of Nina have raved: “Nina is one of the best teachers I have had. She teaches a great sense of color.......” “Nina REALLY teaches.......I learned a lot about technique and color that I never knew before. A great Workshop!” “Nina is an excellent teacher. She puts her instruction into a context relevant to her teaching. She provides a nice balance of information, example/demo & individual guidance.” “I wanted to thank you for your help with my painting, I must tell you that I have never had a teacher that has been as helpful as you are. I have taken a few classes through the Monacep Program at OCC but I have never encountered a true teacher, that is a gift. Thank you-See you next month."
