Bring your favorite dry and water media to the subject of florals as we explore innovative painting approaches to this subject matter. We’ll be looking at the symmetry, color, pattern and shape of flowers as we work with color as composition – using color values and intensity. Each week you’ll receive a different floral photo to sketch out before class. Then, when we meet in class you’ll be following along as we complete the work using layers of color in water media and pastel—understanding a new approach and color choices along the way.

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.
