Maine Adult Education

Join instructor Ed Higgins at the Chocolate Church in Bath for a very special 3-day artist’s retreat. You will not only have full access to the Chocolate Church’s new “Maker’s Space” to experiment, work, and evolve your process; but you’ll also learn some nuts and bolts studio skills to make your working experience better. Good StudioCraft gets you prepared for wherever your creativity might take you. Organization of tools, media, and surfaces helps put you in a state of readiness, and prevents the inertia that often plagues artists when facing the prospect of beginning a work session. So we’ll highlight things like stretching canvases, toning and preparing surfaces, brush organization, care and maintenance, mixing colors and saving them in empty tubes, assembling a field kit for your plein air work, and much more. Limited space available. Retreat schedule is WED 9-12pm, THU 1-4pm, & FRI 9-12pm.
