The Portrait (16+)
The Portrait
Ages 16+
Join us for six weeks of drawing the portrait.
Fridays 9/11-10/16 from 2-4pm.
A portrait has everything, yet it has very little. It is complex, but simple. Still, but full of life. Simple lines turn into shapes that create form. Shadow and light pull it all together. Proportions can be mechanical and hinder creativity, so let's comprehend what we see and make some real art!
If Rembrandt and Picasso can do it, so can you!
Provided supplies include toned tan paper, pens, and other drawing supplies that will be used during the class.

Keith Joe Dick
As a graduate of Cooper School of Art in Cleveland majoring in graphic design and illustration I have always been drawn to the landscape of Americana and the never ending style of visual arts. Now a resident of Oberlin, formerly proprietor of Ketchum Sign Works in Ketchum, Idaho where I specialized in custom handcrafted signs and murals. The business space also served as a fine art painting studio where drawing and painting workshops were conducted regularly. Previously in Los Angeles I honed skills as a pictorial artist and sign painter at the Hollywood Sign Company where I designed and painted scenic backdrops and signs for feature films, commercials, and theatre. As a journeyman I enjoyed mastering airbrush, gold leaf applications, faux finishes and pictorials. boingoarts.com

scholarships & aid
FAVA reviews and considers all application for scholarship assistance. While we may not be able to provide a complete scholarship to all those who request it, we are committed to making our classes available to as many people as possible – regardless of individual financial circumstances. For this reason, it is important that all scholarship requests are received well in advance of the class starting date, so we may allocate our available funds accordingly. We may consider any of the following factors when determining eligibility for scholarships:
- Annual family income
- Individual or special circumstances
- Whether the applicant qualifies for the National Free/Reduced Price School Lunch program
(for students age 18 & younger)
**FAVA also encourages applicants to consider partial scholarship assistance, in which case the student only pays some portion of the class tuition.
All information will be kept confidential and will be used solely to determine the amount of scholarship assistance to be provided.
