Create a portfolio of mixed media ideas by experimenting with combing pastel with acrylic, watercolor or gouache. We’ll use various approaches and media to discover visually interesting textures and applications. Each week we’ll explore a new combination to produce stunning effects. Students will use supplied sketches to map our their paintings and we’ll work in class on application of color effects.

Jude Valentine
Jude completed her BFA at the Maine College of Art and MFA in Visual Art from Vermont College of Fine Arts. She received numerous awards for her work including: Jerome Foundation Fellowship and an Individual Grant Award from the Council of Creative Arts, Cornell University. Artist residency awards have been received from: the Vermont Studio Center; Stephen Pace House; St. Michael’s Printshop, Newfoundland; the Heliker-LaHotan Foundation, Great Cranberry Isle; the Joseph Fiore Art Center at Rolling Acres Farm / Maine Farmland Trust, Monhegan Artists’ Residency and Elsewhere Studios in Colorado. She was an invited participant at the international EMMA Collaboration in Saskatoon in 2018. Her career has included work in museum and art education. Currently, she is an adjunct associate professor at the University of Southern Maine. The intention of her printmaking and painting practice has been to bridge a connection to the landscape that translates a place from ‘out there’ to ‘in here’—creating a visual connection to place that is somatic and visceral. The focus of the paintings and prints are to place the viewer ‘within’—offering a connection to a quiet place. She has painted and pulled prints in abandoned orchards, at the edge of the Atlantic, within the forested interiors of the White Mountains, on the western range of the Rockies, and at wild and iconic ancestral Italian homelands.
