Build your visual vocabulary and develop
your voice of expression through the use of
universal and personal icons. Unlock the
meanings behind the use of images, color and
composition to speak your mind. Learn hollow
form techniques to construct the human and
animal forms that will be the anchor of your
work and to create narrative sculpture that
expresses meanings of personal, political,
and social thoughts and beliefs. You will use
lowfire white clay, slips and glazes to expand
your ideas into full-scale sculpture and explore
the beneficial use the maquette. James work
explores the beauty and ugliness of a rich
southern environment and he encourages
others to explore their own. His work can vary
from subtle, reverent, poignant, humorous
and at times confrontational. All experience
levels are welcome and personalized instruction will enhance your learning experience.

Six-day session
June 16–22
This hands-on workshop will motivate you to
experiment with new forms and methods of
construction. Geared toward creative expansion, beginners, intermediate and advanced
students will use the wheel to generate pottery
components (vessels, spouts, lids, handles)
and sculptural objects which, when combined,
offer a multitude of mind-bending compositions. Collaboration is also an option, and
process-over-product mentality is our mantra.
Six-day session
Focusing primarily on screen-printing techniques, students will explore personal imagery
with familiar materials such as slip, underglaze
and newsprint paper. Screen-printing introduces many simple, yet complex, surfaces to
our ceramic work, especially when transferring images in the leather-hard state. We’ll
begin with learning print techniques using
photosensitive processes and DIY methods for
creating additional stencils. Discussions and
exercises will encourage image development
pulling from student’s’ patterns, photos, and
drawings. These processes lend themselves to
all firing methods and work with wheel thrown
and hand built forms. We’ll use low fire clay
and dry work will get bisqued, no glazing.
This workshop is surface and technique- oriented and will not cover form or construction
methods. Students will leave with small work
and the technical knowledge to take back
into their own studio. All levels welcome, but
some experience with clay required. No prior
experience necessary with screen-printing.
Jason Bige Burnett graduated from Western
Kentucky University in Bowling Green, KY with a
BFA in ceramics and BA’s in both printmaking
and graphic design. Jason then continued his
education at Penland School of Crafts in western
North Carolina as a core fellowship student for two
years. He has exhibited nationally, been featured
in Ceramics Monthly and Pottery Making Illustrated
and has taught numerous workshops. Currently he
resides at Arrowmont School of Arts and Crafts as
an Artist-In-Residence in Gatlinburg, TN.

Daily exercises include: instructor demonstrations of wheel-throwing, altering, and
cut-and-construct processes, class discussion
of ideas, informal presentations of students‘
visual resource material, in-process critiques
of prototypes, and plenty of brainstorming/
problem-solving sessions.
Ideas and prototype models are the focus. This
format removes the pressure of finishing and
glaze-firing work, while inspiring spontaneity.
We will have an optional glaze firing at the
week’s end, but students are encouraged to
pursue their dream forms and develop more
complex compositions, whether functional
or sculptural.
This hands-on workshop will motivate you to
experiment with new forms and methods of
construction. Geared toward creative expansion, beginners, intermediate and advanced
students will use hand building techniques
such as coil and pinch methods to hard and
soft slab construction to generate a variety
of vessel forms (vases, baskets, boxes, false
bottom forms, etc.). What I love about hand
building is the ease and the quickness you
can achieve your vision. In class discussion of
ideas, informal presentations of visual inspiration material, and plenty of brainstorming/
problem-solving will all be a key part of our
activities. Development of the surface through
texture and slip decoration will also be covered.
Collaboration and fun are going to be our goal.

This intensive course is designed for beginning
and advanced participants who would like to expand their experience in clay. The philosophy of
the studio is to encourage interaction between
fellow students of all skill levels. Activities such
as clay mixing, kiln loading, firing, kiln unloading and glaze mixing are highly encouraged.
Beginning instruction in the use of the pottery
wheel is stressed and throwing on the potter’s
wheel is emphasized. The studio also has the
facilities for the hand builder, i.e. slabroller,
extruder, and ample work space. Students will
complete artworks in cone 6, high temperature
reduction firings, and low temperature salt
(saggar) and raku. Technical and aesthetic
demonstrations take place each day.

Richard Burkett & Joe Molinaro
June 23–29
Course # AACR ØØB2
Six-day session
Explore new ideas in what makes a set, new
ways of making pots, and how sets are presented. We’ll work with thrown, hand-built,
and extruded cups, bowls, vases, plates,
and more to create groupings of porcelain
and stoneware pottery that relate. Trays and
carriers for sets will be part of our week, too.
We’ll use extruding and simple molds to
create elements to connect the sets, including how to make your own extruder dies for
custom shapes such as hollow vessel forms.
The interaction of form, surface, and texture
will be the focus.

June 16–20
Course # AAJW ØØA
One-week session
This workshop will delve into the exciting,
ancient and universal processes of chasing and
repoussé on non-ferrous metals such as copper, brass and silver. The term repoussé refers
to forming sheet metal from the backside with
rounded steel, brass, plastic or wood punches
to create raised areas on the front side in low
to high relief. Chasing refers to detailing the
front side of the piece using tools with specific
shapes and sharper edges to texture, stamp,
undercut and refine the surface of the metal.
We will be working traditionally with pitch (a
pine-resin based material) to support the metal while hammering. Non-traditional methods
that make multiples easier to accomplish
will be covered, including die forming, using
plasticene to support the metal and filling the
form with low temperature thermoplastic.

Although the rolling mill was originally intended as a tool for reducing the thickness of
metal and wire, in the hands of a studio jeweler
it becomes a versatile, multi-purpose tool for
texturing, laminating and shaping metal. In
this course, students will explore some of the
creative techniques possible with the mill. In
addition to imprinting metal with designs using paper, found objects, and metal (including
pierced and etched metal patterns), students
will learn to produce the “married metal”
Multi-Metal Lamination (metal overlay) and
other useful techniques. This course will
demonstrate how the rolling mill can expand
the metalsmith’s technical vocabulary with a
range of new finishes and textures, including
highly graphic imagery, background pattern,

Course # AAJF Ø2
One-week session
It’s all about the details…the bail, the pinstem, the clasp, the earwire–and all the other
mechanisms that make jewelry function. The
thought and care that go into making the piece
should also go into how the piece works. These
elements are an integral part of the design in
well-made jewelry. Handmade findings should
enhance the design, give it a personal touch
and complement the aesthetic of the overall
design. They are a reflection of the attention
to detail necessary in quality art jewelry. In
addition, they can make a statement in and
of themselves.

A spiculum is a tapered tube made from a
flat sheet of metal. They are usually made by
a process of forming similar to that which is
used for traditional tube making. The resulting
product is an elegant tubular form that can be
bent in various ways after the seam is soldered.
But this is just the beginning; what would happen if the pattern was irregular so when the
edges came together, the seam line became
curved? What about synclasticly forming the
metal pattern before closing it into a tube?
What if you anticlasticly form the spiculum and
leave the seam open? Or how about combining
synclastic and anticlastic areas in the same
spiculum and closing it into a vessel form?
In this workshop, we will address the basic
forming processes and move beyond them to
experiment with these additional options. In
this new arena there are endless possibilities
for making bracelets, collars, earrings, beads,
vessels and abstract sculptural forms.
Five Days, Five Projects, Ten Techniques.
This workshop will spend five days exploring
surface design and fabrication techniques
which will be combined to create five pieces

Captured Treasures in
Silver Metal Clay
Jonna Faulkner 
July 6–8
Course # AAJC Ø1
Three-day session
Most of us have a stash of small treasures–
unusual rocks, shells, coins, moon-face
cabochons, watch parts, etc. – that we’d love
to feature in our jewelry. This class will focus
on ways to incorporate these items in eyecatching pendants or pins made of silver
metal clay.
A wonderful medium made up of tiny particles
of silver, an organic binder and water, silver
metal clay works easily with simple tools.
Dried pieces are fired in a kiln. They shrink
slightly as the organic binder burns off. They
emerge from the kiln as pure silver objects.
Usually, cherished treasures can’t survive firing
in a kiln. That means we will focus on alternate
ways of setting these precious items using
prongs and/or rivets after firing and finishing.
The design of each pendant or pin will start
from a basic concept that will be altered as
desired by the student’s aesthetic and the
demands of the object(s) to be featured in
the piece.
Other construction and decorative techniques
that will be covered in the class include creating tubing for bails in metal clay, soldering
pin findings, pearl setting, carving, and final
finishing techniques. Some experience with
metal clay will be helpful, but is not required.
Tuition: $490
Lab Fee: $30 (Includes use of basic kits, kilns
and consumable materials.) Art Clay Silver,
some tiny treasures, pearls, 24k gold foil and
other materials will be available for purchase
in class.

Sometimes it’s difficult to think about the
details of mechanisms before the design is
complete. But it is best if those details are
carefully considered early in the design process
and then created as part of the entire piece.
We will work on ideas and ways to integrate
findings into your jewelry early-on in the
design process.

Spend three days immersed in fabric surface
design exploration using acrylic inks. We’ll
begin with creating colorful textured backgrounds, explore mark making with different

pens, paint imagery opaquely and with a
transparent watercolor look.
Explore layering washes of color with simple
imagery by creating masks with freezer paper
and create textured patterning with simple
resists from common items found in the office supply store.
Each portion of the class will add another level
of complexity to the image making process,
culminating in a painted whole cloth piece
incorporating the techniques learned.
On the last day we will incorporate free motion quilting to the painted fabric using a wool
felt substrate.
This class is packed with tips and ideas of
different ways to work with these versatile

June 27–28: Sanctum of the Forgotten Tune
Over the years I have acquired many interesting bits and pieces of discarded goodies, but I
have to admit that some of the most interesting
of them were musical instruments. Usually by
the time I get them all the melodies of their
past lives have long faded; old trumpets, violins, oboes, and guitars are just dusty shells
destined for a corner in the attic.
Michael deMeng
Or, perhaps, not…one thing I have noticed
about musical instruments is that the old life
never really leaves them. The brass, the mahogany, and ivory, though marked, still have
a voice, though perhaps it is not a voice that
can be heard but rather seen.
In this class, you will bring old discarded
instruments, and we will retune them-not to
play music but so that they speak as a visual
art form. Using the process of assemblage
you will alter and/or combine broken violins,
piano keys, trumpets, etc. and give them a new
beginning as a shrine or sculpture. Music to
your eyes.

June 29–30: Baba Yaga Birdhouse
In Slavic legend there is a tale of an old witch…
sometimes a wise sage…but mostly trouble
maker. Her name is Baba Yaga, who rides in a
flying mortar, using her pestle as the rudder. It
is said that she lives in a strange cabin in the
middle of the forest…surrounded by a fence
made of bones, capped by skulls…an interesting idea...unless you are one of the skulls. The
house itself is also grimly unusual… said to be
perched upon giant chicken legs…sometimes
one…sometimes two.
This folktale seemed like a great source
for a class idea. We will create a fantastical
birdhouse perched on legs–doll legs, rubber
chicken legs, or a mere pedestal.
Now for a bit of extra credit, as an option, for
folks who want to play with a bit of puppetry–
I’ll show the class how to add flapping wings to
the haggish home. This might come in handy
if your birdhouse doesn’t have a leg to stand
on…har, har.

MIXED MEDIA/BOOK ARTS
The second day, we unleash the molds and
work on our new forms, with painting and
layering processes, surface treatments, and
re-forming pieces to fit each other. We will
use files, drills, glues and epoxies, and even
magnets. This is the day we build and paint
our French cage. Then, after incorporating
any found objects, we attach the grand parts
together and move toward embellishment.
The embellishment process may entail ribbon, chain, rosaries, crowns, wings, wire,
paper, charms, beads, collage, material, or
photographs….really anything.
Full Throttle Journaling and Lomography:
• Breaking into the blank page.
Laura Wait, Artis Litterarius, I
The first day you will be guided through
sculpting in polymer, incorporating found
figurative elements, and the casting of figurative parts. Molding putty makes the casting
process simple and fun. Then you will learn
all about pouring resin into mold forms and
all it entails. We will play with color, opacity vs.
transparency, and the embedding of objects
and text. We will also pour encaustic forms
and experience the differences and similarities
between these two mediums.
The third day, we create a small Reliquary to
go along with our figure. This can be resin or
encaustic, and uses techniques in collage,
casting, and embedding. The Reliquary can
be held or worn by the figure or hung within
the figure. Alternately, a student can choose
to cast another figure to sit within the original
figure. Overall height of finished Santos Cage
Doll will be approximately 18”. Open to all
levels of experience.
• Becoming comfortable with hand tools,
dremels, and drills.
•
In this workshop you will be given the time
and space to stretch your mind, your heart
and your vision, and apply it to the making of a
figurative piece in an extensive variety of mixed
media. We will each be making a Santos Cage
Doll, uniquely our own, an individual statement of ourselves. Conceptually, the figure in
art is the epitome of reflection into ourselves.
The French Santos Cage Doll is an exceptional
form of expression for this reflection, as it is
half “cage”/ half “saint” (our higher selves).
Within the working of this form, we, as artists,
are presented with an intriguing and personal
opportunity to express inner conflict, struggle
and resolution. Perhaps even Rapture.
Linda Lenart McNulty is a Figurative and Encaustic
Artist, and has received degrees in Fine Art and
Dance from Columbia College, Chicago. She
lives in Oberlin, Ohio where she teaches Encaustic
Painting, Encaustic Jewelry and Encaustic and
Resin Casting. Her new body of work redefines
the Santos Cage Doll, and highlights her love of
sculpting, casting and conceptual art.

Creative writing techniques. (Writing, after
all, is at the true heart of a journal. We will
discuss many techniques to keep this
process fun…whether you are simply
chronicling the day’s events, jotting “to do”
lists, or creating the next great novel.)

The spirit of this annual series is to bring the scientific, intuitive and
trickster voices together for a balanced and provocative learning experience. This year’s program, “Continuum,” invites participants to consider
current social or creative actions as the contemporary manifestation of
an ancient expressive tradition. Instead of looking at arts and cultures
through the static lens of “old vs.
new”, “traditional vs. contemporary” or “lost vs. preserved”,
the idea of “continuum” offers
an alternative view of arts and
culture as ever-evolving aspects
of human expression.

Day two will focus on hunting techniques
including the rabbit stick (a boomerang-like
weapon), deadfall traps and hunting net.
Guest Brandon Duran will teach rabbit stick
making. In the hands of a skillful hunter, it was
an effective weapon for harvesting small game
at a distance of up to fifty feet. The deadfall
trap consists of a heavy rock or log that is
tilted on an angle and held up with sections
of branches, one of which serves as a trigger
trapping small game. Finally, the hunting
net is a long weaving of natural fibers used
to entangle small game that would be driven
into the net. In addition, participants will see
demonstrations of Atlatl (spear) throwing, and
fire-starting using two sticks.
Students should expect moderate physical
activity throughout the workshop.
Tuition: $220
Lab fee: $25 (Includes preparation and collec-
tion of many of the items to be used in class.)

museums including the Tahquitz Canyon Museum.
Tony is dedicated to sharing his knowledge to
ensure that Native American pottery making is
never lost. He has taught his skills at many venues
including the Agua Caliente Band of the Desert
Cahuilla of Palm Springs and the Yuman tribes of
the Colorado River, Arizona.

Learn ways to preserve and utilize
native plants in this hands-on workshop. On day one, begin with an ethnobotany talk in the campus meadow next to
ancient Cahuilla bedrock mortars to learn
about local plants and their many uses. Next,
learn how to make items from the Elderberry
plant: instruments (clapper sticks decorated
with abalone shell), a medicine pouch (small
container out of hollowed branches); and learn
about the many uses of elderberry for medicine, food, and dye (to blacken juncus for
basketmaking). In the evening, visit local
Cahuilla rock art sites to learn the meaning,
historical significance and importance of the
preservation of these sites.
Day two will be devoted to traditional and
modern gathering practices of native plants;
preparing and cooking with a wide range of
plants; and will include demonstrations on the
processing of acorns, mesquite beans, prickly
pear cactus and chia into various products.

The Indian tribes of California produced baskets of great diversity and
beauty. The exquisite baskets of the
Cahuilla, in particular, are recognized among
the highest form of the basket making art, and
in recent years the Cahuilla have experienced
a revival in the tradition.
In this course learn how to create a
traditional Plains style doll using
materials that were common in making dolls of the past. Plains dolls were originally learning and play items used to teach
the youth of the Plains culture. Students will
hand build a buckskin doll and adorn it with
traditional clothing and accompaniments.
Each student will learn how to create a basket
of his/her own during the workshop using
yucca, sumac, juncus and deer grass. On a
field trip to the nearby Cahuilla Reservation,
students will be taught identification of plants
used in basket making and will learn how to
prepare the plants for use.
Tuition: $715
Lab fee: $40 (Includes materials, field trip
transportation and use of tools in the class.)
Rose Ann Hamilton, Mountain Cahuilla, learned
the art of Cahuilla Basketmaking from Donna Largo,

Hopi Baskets play an integral role in the life
and ceremonies of the Hopi people. From
dances and weddings to giving thanks and
appreciation, the uses of baskets at Hopi are
many. The exquisite baskets that are woven
by Hopi women come in three distinct styles
and techniques. The coiled plaques made at
Second Mesa are the subject of this workshop.
Students will have the opportunity to
learn the art of weaving from Master
Navajo Weaver, Barbara Teller Ornelas,
originally from Two Grey Hills and Newcomb,
New Mexico, and her sister Lynda Teller Pete.
While instructing and demonstrating, Barbara and Lynda will share their family’s personal weaving stories and experiences, allowing participants a chance to view the world of
Navajo weaving.
This is a rare opportunity to work with Hopi
elder Griselda Saufkie from the village of
Shungopovi, Second Mesa, and her daughter,
basketmaker Antoinette Abeita. Students will
learn the techniques of making and incorporating design into a coiled plaque basket. They
will learn how the yucca and galleta grass are
gathered and prepared for texture and color,
and each student will then design and create a
plaque basket. In addition, Griselda will bring
fresh green yucca and rings to create Hopi
sifter baskets. This is a two day process, so a
student may choose to learn this technique
in addition to the coil technique.
According to Navajo oral tradition two holy
people, Spider Woman and Spider Man,
introduced weaving to the Navajo. Spider
Man constructed the first loom, which was
composed of sunshine, lightning, and rain;
and Spider Woman taught the people how to
weave on it. Spider Woman was discovered by
the Holy Twins, the culture heroes of the Navajo
Creation Story, in a small opening in the earth
surrounded by an array of beautiful weavings. Entering her dwelling, the Holy Twins
descended a ladder made of yarn, whereupon
Spider Woman offered them knowledge of the
world of weaving.
One-week session
Tuition: $715
Lab Fee: $45 (Includes gathered and prepared
materials and the use of tools in class.)
Griselda Saufkie lives on the Hopi Reservation in
Arizona. She began making baskets upon initiation,
when she was about 12 years old. She has the distinction of being named an Arizona Indian Living
Treasure. Griselda has received many awards for
her basketry, and is included in books such as Art
of the Hopi: Contemporary Journeys on Ancient
Pathways, by Lois and Jerry Jacka.
Antoinette Saufkie Abeita, daughter of Griselda
and the late Lawrence Saufkie, resides on the
Hopi Reservation in the village of Soongopavi,
and belongs to the Water Clan. She started making baskets at the age of 18 after going through
the Lakon (basket dance) initiation and has kept
the tradition going. Her mother took Antoinette’s
baskets to the Arts and Crafts Markets to sell for
her, and she now shares a booth at the Santa Fe
Indian Market with her mother.
Beginners: Students will learn the traditional
method of Navajo weaving and will begin
weaving on Day 1 with a pre-warped, upright
Navajo loom. The majority of the week will be
spent designing and learning how to weave a
12” x 16” rug. There will be a lesson on warping
a loom later in the week. Beginning weavers
may enroll for the full two weeks or in the
first week only.
Intermediate: Students will learn more
advanced weaving techniques and more
intricate patterns, and the rug may be any
size. Students who have begun a rug in this
workshop in previous summers may bring
their rugs to complete, or may begin a new
rug. Intermediate students must bring their
own loom and it must be set up for weaving
before class begins. Alternately, they may order
a pre-warped loom (when they register) to
work on if they prefer. Intermediate students
(those who have taken this course before or
have had previous basic training in Navajo
weaving on an upright loom) may enroll for
the full two weeks or in the second week only.
Lynda Pete
Materials: Students may wish to bring a seat
cushion and small clamp or desk lamp.

Course # NAJN Ø1
One-week session
The Navajo adopted the art of jewelry
making from the Spanish after contact,
taking the art to new heights and establishing a style that is now considered to be
the “traditional” Navajo style. Today, there are
many Navajo jewelers who are moving beyond
that style, designing contemporary pieces of
jewelry which reflect a new Native American
reality. Artists are creating colorful collages
and patterns with beautiful stones and shells
set in gold and silver. In addition to turquoise
and coral, it is not unusual to find lapis lazuli, purple lavulite, diamonds, pearls, malakite, jet stone, jade, melon shell and other
stones, shells and gems in contemporary
Native American jewelry.
Working closely with one of the leading contemporary Navajo jewelers, students will learn
the techniques used to create such pieces.
They will design patterns, cut, grind and
prepare stones, and set the stones into basic
silver forms (rings, bracelets, earrings, bolos,
etc.) which they have created. Participants
without prior experience in silversmithing
will also be introduced to the basic concepts
of shaping silver.
In this workshop, each student will
construct and decorate a six-hole flute
under the guidance of an experienced
Navajo flute maker. They will also learn some
history of flutes as well as the care and handling
of their newly created instrument. During the
course, ethnomusicologist Ernest Siva will
teach the basics of flute playing and each
student will receive a small booklet of flute
music.
Intermediate students–those who have taken
class from the Yazzies in the past (4-day session
begins July 4) will use poplar for the body of
the flute in the key of B (low)–new this year.
The flute will be side blown and have a 1 1/4
inch bore size.
Tuition: $490 (Beginning, 3-day session)
$590 (Intermediate, 4-day session)
Lab fee:$40 (Beginning, 3-day session)

Corners region of Arizona. Jonette assists Marvin in
flute making, an art they learned from their relative
Willard Coyote. Their flutes are carried in the Heard
Museum shop and others around the country, as
well as Asia and Europe. Recording artist Scott
August of Cedar Mesa Music has used Yazzie flutes
on Sacred Dreams and New Fire, two of his CDs.
Marvin is listed in Flute Magic and Voices of the
Flute. Yazzie flutes are used in the music programs
of Tuscon and Klamath-Trinity school districts. Marvin

Inspired by the ancient Casas Grandes
pottery of Chihuahua, Mexico, Juan
Quezada began making pottery in 1975
in his village of Mata Ortiz. His success inspired
others to begin making this style of pottery,
and there are now hundreds of potters working in Mata Ortiz. Jorge Quintana was one of
Juan’s students, and has emerged as one of
the outstanding and innovative potters of this
second generation of Mata Ortiz artists.

Course # NAPH Ø1
Students in this workshop will learn
the traditional Hopi method of creating polychrome pottery, including coil
building, stone burnishing, painting with
natural pigments, and firing. Learn how to
process and prepare raw clay for pottery making and to prepare beeweed plant for black
paint. Students will also have the opportunity to experiment with two types of clay, the
Hopi-Tewa gray clay, as well as the yellow ochre
clay that Nampeyo often used; see demonstrations of slipping techniques using white kaolin
and yellow ochre; and learn two firing techniques (for both gray and yellow ochre pots).
The natural clays and paints are provided by
the artist, from the Hopi Reservation in Arizona. There is enough clay for each student
to make 2 to 3 small pieces of pottery – all
that can be successfully completed in the
week-long workshop. This is not a production
pottery course, but a careful examination of
the delicate process of Hopi pottery making
and the cultural foundation from which the
art is inspired.

In this course, students will learn to create
both polychrome and black pots in the Mata
Ortiz tradition. Participants will build, polish,
sand, paint and fire their pots in an outdoor
firing. Jorge will also teach how to make paint
brushes with hair, mix clay and pigments. The
clay and paints/pigments are provided by the
instructor and are gathered from his home.
Jorge Quintana is an artist, innovator, entrepreneur and teacher. Jorge is known not only for his
exquisitely symmetrical polychrome pots, but also
for his experimentation with the use of different
minerals to color his pots. He has demonstrated
the art across the U.S. at venues including the
Southwest Museum in Los Angeles, Idyllwild Arts, the
Autry Museum, and the Sam Maloof Foundation
for Arts and Crafts. His distinctive polychrome pots
have been shown in the major exhibitions on Mata
Ortiz pottery, including the Exhibits USA Potters of
Mata Ortiz traveling exhibition and the American
Museum of Ceramic Arts (AMOCA) exhibition in
Pomona, California. He is included in books on
the subject, including The Miracle of Mata Ortiz
by Walter Parks.
Learn the traditional methods and techniques
for making Santa Clara Pueblo pottery–the
distinctive black polished work with carved
designs. The instructor will guide students
through all the steps from processing the
native clay, hand–building using the coil technique, designing, carving, slipping and stone
burnishing, to reduction firing for blackware.
Because the instructor’s method requires extensive air-drying time, each student will have
the privilege of using a dried vessel prepared
by the instructor to learn the carving, polishing and firing techniques. In addition, each
student will start pieces from the beginning of
the process–mixing clay (with your feet!) and
building pots–and will be able to complete
those pieces at home after the 30-day drying
period. The workshop will also include individual firings, and discussions about Santa
Clara Pueblo, the pottery making tradition, and
the cultural foundation from which the art is
inspired. The raw clay and paints are provided
by the artist, and are gathered from his home.
Tuition: $715
Lab Fee: $125 (Includes clay, paints, stones
and all materials, as well as one 5” to 6”dried
vessel prepared by the instructor to complete.)

One-week session
During this five day intensive class students will
paint between fifteen and twenty-five paintings. We will be covering six basic contrasts of
color theory. No swatches or charts, we will be
painting directly from models set-up in specific
color and lighting situations that present these
aspects of color theory as they appear in the
real world. This fast-paced method of specific
set-ups and consistent change is unique to
this workshop. I have designed it specifically
to challenge artists as well as deliver more
color theory and practical experience through
painting the effects of light directly. Each artist
will complete this workshop with a personal
journal including documentation, examples of
various color interactions, theories and their
applications, and a glossary of color terms to
serve as their own valued source and foundation for years to come.
This workshop is best suited for intermediate to professional artists, or artists with oil
painting experience.
Tuition: $715
Lab Fee: $75 (Includes daily model fees.)

Contemporary
Approaches to Painting
Iva Gueorguieva
June 24–28
Course # AAPC ØØ
One-week session
What is contemporary? What is abstraction?
How does one arrive at an image?What is painting and what is its relationship to drawing?
These are some of the questions that will guide
our discussion during the course of the week.
Each day, we will focus on the work of one
contemporary artist, analyzing both formal
and conceptual strategies and relationship to
history. The artists we will consider are Trenton
Doyle Hancock, Mark Bradford, Robyn O’Neil,
Tal R, and Per Kierkby.
Our discussions will determine the materials and visual propositions framing each
day’s approach to small works on paper and
canvas. These experiments will in turn feed
into the development of 2-3 larger works
to be completed in the course of the week,
which will reflect more precisely the personal
vision and interest of each participant. The
goal is to identify ways continually to engage
history, while cultivating sensitivity and an
understanding of the current cultural and
political moment. Both contribute to clarity
and forcefulness in art.
We will focus in particular on the use of
collage, where cutting and layering is used
to construct surface and image. We will use
acrylic and flash paint, as well as a number of
non-fine art methods and materials. We will
also look at how limitations serve as central
to the technique of these artists.

Course # AAPE ØØ
In this workshop you will be supported and
encouraged to delve into a wide range possibilities of painting with molten bees wax.
Encaustic has a rich and ancient history dating
back more then 4,000 years. This lush medium
delights the senses with its gentle fragrance
and enticing surfaces. Creating with wax can be
a profound experience, providing the freedom
to create unique expressions of our visions
through sculpture, transparency, and layering.
One of the most exciting characteristics of this
medium is its range of possible expression, and
we will focus on projects that aim to encourage
your personal creative journey.
We will build a strong foundation through
hands-on painting, gaining a solid understanding of grounds and supports, color
studies, employing multiple fusing methods,
use of mulitple brush types, hot tools, incising
tools, and more. After we have refined painting
methods, we will explore the use of additional
mediums that complement encaustic such as
incorporating oil paint, creating a plaster cloth
form, working with paper for both printmaking
and booklets, working with unconventional
supports such as plexiglass.
Each day, students will have materials and
instruction for a specific project. In addition
to the structure of these hands-on projects,
Cari Hernandez, Oh My
there is freedom to focus on the methods and
materials that each student is most drawn to,
as ample time is provided to explore and have
creative play. All levels are welcome, and returning students will find innovative methods
and techniques to work with as well.

Quick Studies & Beyond
Scott W.Prior
June 16–18
Course # AAPF ØØ
Three-day session
This is a high-energy workshop concentrating
on the fundamentals, where students will be
working with the basics: drawing, values, edge
control, composition and paint handling. By
working on the ‘basics’, the artists will start
building confident brushwork and will make
quicker decisions, forcing them to rely more
on their instincts, all of which are important
tools that are needed with “Direct Painting”
or “Alla Prima” painting, whether painting in
the studio or painting Plein Air.
Focusing on Still Life and the Figure, students
will be producing Quick Studies that are painted in 30 minute sessions and up. Students will
learn the importance of color studies and the
excitement of Direct Painting. Each day begins
with a demo and discussion, then students will
work on their Quick Studies, gradually working up to larger paintings and longer sessions.
Beginners through advanced painters wanting
to hone their skills are welcome.

Course # AAPF Ø2
One-week session
This workshop is designed to explore how
the practice of figure painting uniquely engages both the abstract field of ideas and the
experiential field of the physical. Rebecca
will help students identify and articulate
their own conceptual and narrative interests
as they relate to and incorporate the figure
and further help them develop a painting
process that realizes these interests in the
language of paint. Rebecca will create a passionate and well–informed context for student
explorations and discussions through daily
lectures on the figure in painting history and
contemporary art.
Students will begin by using drawing, collage
and photography to plan a series of paintings
incorporating the figure based on ideas they
feel are compelling. Student projects will be
enriched with introduction to techniques that
refine the student’s abilities to paint representationally as well as gestural experiments
designed to strengthen student’s ability to
paint expressively. Oil and Acrylic mediums
will be addressed. Emphasis will be put on the
individual student’s strengths and personal
vision. Skill level: Intermediate to advanced
professional.
This class will be directed to the spontaneous representation of the male and female
figure in watercolor. There will be a strong
emphasis on the use of color, white space and
composition. Color mixing from a limited palette, light, shade, shadow, brush techniques,
graded washes, foreshortening, facial details,
lost and found edges, and proportion will be
demonstrated and practiced. We will work
from models. No matter how much previous
instruction you have had, this class will have
you seeing and painting the figure in a new way.
This class is for you if you:
• Have had some experience with watercolor
• Have had some experience drawing the
figure
• Would like to learn easy techniques for
painting the figure quickly–during a 20

Encaustic Monoprinting functions both as a
primer to the encaustic monotype and as an
exploration of the more advanced techniques
involved in producing repeatable images
while printing with wax. The purpose of this
class is ts to a wide variety of papers, tools,
processes and ideas connected to producing
encaustic prints and to engage participants in
varied technical process with an emphasis on
adapting that process to expanding their own
unique visual language. Students will begin
by learning the basics and variables of the
encaustic monotype: heat, paint, paper and
pressure. They will then progress to exploring
techniques such as using additive and subtractive process, trace monotype, stenciling and
varied advanced techniques that explore how
to control line, placement, color and saturation. These techniques will allow participants
to fine tune and nuance their printed images.
Students can expect to create a wide variety
of prints during this class encompassing a
varied range of technical and intuitive process.

continues through the use of collage, drawing,
and multiple plate projects. Students will be
encouraged to pursue their artistic vision
using monotype as a mark making tool in
combination with whatever other techniques
are efficient and available. The notion of the
“artist as an inventor” will be stressed as mixed
media techniques open the door to limitless
opportunities. The approach is energetic and
open, as each student’s individual style will
dictate the direction of the workshop.
The program is non-toxic working with
AKUA waterbased intaglio inks. Modifying,
layering, mixing inks, finding color, use and
abuse of mark-making tools, exploring the
limits of paper, collage, chine colle and built
up surface will all be discussed. Working with
drawing materials, the optional integration
of Solarplate, ImageOn, traditional intaglio
plates, other matrices, and finishing prints as
resolved and complete expressions, including
solving issues after printing, are aspects of the
workshop. Though some monotype and/or
other printmaking experience is helpful, all
levels of students are welcome.
June 24–28
Course # AAEP ØØ
One-week session
Developed by master printmaker Dan Welden,
Solarplate Etching is an exciting, spontaneous and highly professional technique that
utilizes UV light and water instead of traditional grounds and acids. The Solarplate is a
light-sensitized polymer printing plate that
accepts all kinds of images, including drawings
and paintings on acetate, photocopies, digital
photographs on transparent film. Artists can
also paint freely and directly on the Solarplate
surface and create a matrix capable of yielding
many impressions. Participants will be able
to produce several 8x10 inch images during
this intensive workshop. Larger plates may be
made available with prior request. Printmaking experience is preferred but not essential.
Tuition: $715
Lab Fee: $45 (Includes shared materials and
supplies. Solar plates and paper available for
purchase from the instructor.)
Tuition: $715
Lab fee: $75

One-week session
Participants will be engaged in experiencing
contemporary methods of sculpture in plaster
–a remarkably versatile material–working
from the seed of an idea to final work. Plaster
has been a traditional material used in the
sculptural process as well as a contemporary
material which allows for exploration of ideas
in new ways. Students will learn to carve
small to medium pieces, work with surface,
texture and coloration of the plaster, with
an eye towards finding an artistic voice in a
new medium.
Students will learn to mix plaster, adding various materials to the plaster to alter its color and
texture (such as sand, ceramic oxides, small
objects, paints, washes, etc.). Sculptures may
be carved or assembled in sections allowing for
a wide range of creative possibilities. Students
will explore how to make sculpture that is
personal, individual and expressive, and may
explore abstraction or representational form
in their pieces. The focus is to blend materials, concepts and skills in a supportive and
experiential environment. The class is open
to all levels of experience.
Tuition: $715
Lab Fee: $45 (Includes plaster, colorants,
plastic bags, dust masks, sandpaper, plastic
buckets.)

Making It Up
The Art of Writing Fiction
SCULPTURE/WRITING
“Never let the truth get
in the way of a good
story,” Mark Twain
supposedly said. This
workshop will explore
the art and craft of
fiction, using a multitude of exercises to
tap and enhance your
own deep sources of
creativity. If you have a vivid imagination, or
if you are a storyteller who likes to embellish,
or you want to look at your tales with a new
perspective, the class will provide you with
the tools to paint with words. Whether you
are a beginner or are a prolific writer, you will
walk away from this workshop with a better
understanding of the structural elements
that underpin all great stories. You will also
be armed with new techniques for creating
characters who come to life on the page, for
creating vivid worlds with your words, and
how to keep generating story ideas. All levels
of writer will be able to apply the lessons.
While writing fiction is often about finding
the truth of the story, come prepared to make
stuff up. And to write! Class time will be about
practicing what we learn—bring plenty of
pens and blank notebooks. By the end of the
week, everyone will have at least one wellhoned piece of fiction presentable for public
consumption.
This workshop will meet from 9–noon each
morning and again from 1–2pm in the afternoon for writing sessions.

Course # AAWP Ø2
One-week session
This special week of poetry is open to anyone
with an interest in writing poetry, following the
long-held Idyllwild Arts tradition of building
a diverse community of voices to enrich the
conversation, from enthusiastic beginners
to emerging and established poets. Five days
of workshops, craft talks, readings, and lively
discussion under the pines will focus on helping participants write new poems and explore
new ideas.
Participants will work with two teachers.
Close-critique of drafts and revisions will be
balanced with larger propositions about the
nature of poetry. Small class size will ensure
that each participant receives individual attention and advice about his or her development as a writer.
Our schedule includes workshops from 9–
noon, and craft talks by faculty and special
guests from 1–3 P.M. On Tuesday evening, the
faculty and special guests will read from their
work, followed by a book signing. Wednesday
afternoon will be more loosely structured to
allow for catching up on reading and writing, or
sharing work in a less formal setting. Thursday
evening, workshop participants are invited
to read new poems from the workshops with
the Idyllwild community, with a livestream
for those unable to join us this year in person.

be added to all accounts which are past due.
All past due accounts will be turned over to a
collection agency after September 30, 2013.

Refunds
3) If Idyllwild Arts cancels a class, all fees are
refundable in full.
The Summer Program’s planning, hiring, purchasing and related expenses are directly determined by the number of enrollments received
in the early Spring. Therefore, no refunds are
made for early withdrawals, student cancellations or no-shows (regardless of accident,
illness, or change of plans) except as follows.
Idyllwild Arts is not able to apply non-refundable payments to a future summer program.
There are no exceptions to this policy.
