portraiture, but for those of you who are interested in color it could be a very helpful class. The teacher is
Mike Rooney, a landscape painter who emphasizes simplification and quick decisions, but the stated purpose

Workshops (In-State) listings or go to www.bindersart.com and check out their workshop schedule.
Essential Elements in Paintings –
Townsend Atelier in Chattanooga is offering an interesting short workshop Oct. 24 and 25 with Erin Lee
Gafill called “Passion for Painting.” Their description reads: “By eliminating all but the nonessential forms,
participants must examine what matters and what doesn't, what to leave in and what to leave out, in telling
their visual story.” I thought it sounded worth mentioning—you can see details at www.townsendatelier.com.
The workshop is included below and in the pdf file under Workshops (Out-of-State)
Improve Your Drawing –
If you haven’t seen David Kassan’s work you’re truly missing the extraordinary—and he will be teaching a
Drawing Workshop at Townsend Atelier December 9-11! (See below and Workshops (Out-Of-State) in the pdf
file, or go to www.townsendatelier.com). I’m sure this will be worth the drive to Chattanooga! He’ll also offer a
demonstration at the Hunter Museum of American Art in Chattanooga on December 8 – see the listing below
and in the pdf file.

Our Mission Statement:
To awaken creativity and rejuvenate the human spirit through visual arts education for all.
Come by to watch the artists at work or sit down and create some art of your own. Our artists are eager to
share their talent with you through demonstrations, as well as their artwork, which will be featured for sale in
Art Works.
Come in any time to paint pottery in Ursula Dietz’s Bare Ware Pottery Studio (yes, it’s the same one as in
Columbus). Bring a friend, entertain a visitor, reward a child or just take some time for yourself and get lost
in your own creativity! Choose from cups, mugs, plates, bowls, frames, cookie jars, & way too many choices
to list. We have many figurines, banks & items for the kids, along with lots of idea books & friendly
instructors to help you get started. As in her Columbus location, Ursula offers her famous Pottery Painting
Parties to celebrate any occasion. We offer other types of parties, too. Choose from jewelry making, glass
fusing, silver clay, painting, clay, and more. Tell us what you want your group to do and we’ll plan a fun time
for all!
We now have pre-cut glass kits for fusing a holiday ornament or candle holder. Pick your favorite project,
lay the colorful pieces of glass onto a base piece to create your design and we will fuse it in our glass kiln.
Choose from pendants, night-lights, sun catchers, ornaments, candle holders & more. Unique idea for gift
giving occasions & you can say, “I made it for you!” If you live out of town, we can ship it to you. If you want
to learn to cut glass so you can design your own one of a kind pieces, then sign up for one of our glass
fusing classes & we’ll teach you how to get serious with hot glass. Jan Hochreiter, one of our in-house hot
glass artists, will be making glass beads over a flame this fall & winter and offering her unique lamp worked
beads for sale, along with other beading supplies for those interested in designing their own jewelry.
Come by when Dick Millman is in and watch his skillful handling of watercolor; there’s a lot to be learned
looking over the shoulder of a master! What he does with watercolor is what watercolor was intended to do!
A retired Auburn professor of architecture, Dick also brings his strong drawing discipline & understanding of
perspective & proportion to his students. He’s a lot of ‘bang for the buck’ and loves sharing his experience &
knowledge of the medium with those wishing to learn. Terry Oliver is out front most Saturday mornings
(weather permitting) carving his Wood Spirits & Bears from large blocks of wood using chisels & a mallet.
Terry is our two-for-one special. You get to watch him work and listen to him talk about the history of the
area, stalking around in the woods hunting for an inspiring piece of wood to carve, and all without missing a
whack of the mallet!
