“Celebrate the beauty of autumn by creating a colorful landscape filled with glowing fall foliage reflected in a peaceful pond,” Cesaretti invites.

In a fun and supportive four-hour workshop, learn the same planning techniques used by professional artists.

“Discover why each stage of the painting process matters, from planning a strong composition to establishing values, choosing harmonious colors and building the painting through loose, expressive layers.”

A $10 cash fee may be paid to Cesaretti for supplies, or consult the supply list on the registration page.

On Monday, Nov. 16, from 10 a.m. to 3 p.m., “Collage Winter Landscapes into Holiday Greeting Cards” with Clara Sue Beym at the Stafford location.

Turn “oops” watercolor paintings and paper scraps into charming holiday greetings, Beym suggests. Using torn-paper techniques, students will learn the fundamentals of collage while upcycling watercolor remnants into fresh landscape and forest scenes.

Create a set of four 5-by-7-inch greeting cards. Make each design unique or work in a coordinated series. The theme prompts focus on trees and landscapes, and sample projects will be available for inspiration. Collages will be mounted on provided cards for framable mini works of art. Add an optional calligraphic message inside or leave them blank to give away as a gift.

Four cards and envelopes are provided. Calligraphy markers will be available for interior greetings. Students should bring the remaining supplies as noted in the supply list. Tuition is $60 ($50 for members).
