Costanza Knights art classes are run as an open studio, with an emphasis on releasing each student’s individual talents. An underlying foundation of drawing is conveyed to all students as they draw a still life using charcoal. They are then introduced to other two dimensional media available which include pastels, tempera, watercolor, acrylics, and clayboard. Printmaking is explored using soft cut blocks and linoleum or creating monotypes on plexiglass. Hand built clay forms are made out of sculpey clay with armatures if needed. Other tactile media such as wood, metal, and fabric are available for 3-D projects and collage. In addition to long projects, students learn about such concepts as Picasso’s blue period or the movement in Degas’ paintings. By “painting like Van Gogh” they learn about art history directly. More advanced students work on longer projects and are assisted in developing portfolios. All students work is entered in the annual Mentors and Students shows sponsored by the Arts Council. Knight’s classes are held at The Starving Artist Art Supply Store at 814 Kanuga Road in Hendersonville, North Carolina. For more information call 828-243-0084.
