Still Life in the style of Frida Kahlo

In this project we will look at Frida Kahlo's piece “Fruits of the Earth”. It is an unusual painting for her, and we will use it as a springboard to create our own still life pieces using fruits and vegetables.

Materials needed:

• glue
• scissors
• several sheets of paper, one large preferably vertical
• paint, could be acrylic, tempera, gouache, or water color
• brushes, small, medium,large
• pencil and eraser
• palette, a square of cardboard covered in tin foil works well
• source material, sketches, photos, images of paintings

This is a 3-class series being held on Wednesdays, 11am-12:30pm at the Sea Isle City Library:

• 5/8
• 5/15
• 5/22

All registrants are required to attend the first class of a series. If absent, your spot will be given to the next in line on the Waitlist.

About Joel Adas - I have been teaching painting, drawing, and collage to all ages for 30 years. I grew up in Highland Park, New Jersey but moved to Brooklyn, New York in the mid 1990s.  I’ve exhibited my paintings extensively in New York and abroad and throughout my years in Brooklyn continued to teach in schools and community centers. My basic approach is to combine art making with some art history and a sense of where certain ideas and approaches to art come from.
