CURSIVE CRUSH With Anne Elser All Levels ARTZ16123 | Saturday & Sunday January 23rd & 24th, 11am – 4:30pm

Description: Celebrate National Handwriting Day by re-learning Cursive Handwriting with Anne Elser at Binders in Buckhead!

The speed of digital communication today has gifted us with more time to pursue things we love. But somewhere along the way, we’ve forgotten how good it feels to use a writing instrument to record our thoughts for ourselves and to those we love. Writing, and the time it takes to produce letterforms, is good for the body, mind, and spirit. It is also a gift to the recipient, who holds your elevated thoughts in their hands, literally, and with far more consideration and pause than through a text or email.

The child of Spencerian calligraphy, Cursive Handwriting is not forgotten, because we have made a table for you to come join us in two fun and joyous days of lettering. Students will learn (or re-learn!) capitals and lower case letterforms, through formal exercises in structure, rhythm and flow - all standards similar to those taught not that long ago.

Day one is spent on spacing and lower case characters. Day two we’ll dance with capitals and dive right into an envelope addressing/letter writing project. Both days we’ll take an hour break for lunch. This workshop is suitable for calligraphers, tweens, and all adults.

Poetic Pen

With Heather Held 2 Sessions | $120 ARTZ1632 | Saturday March 19th 10-4 & Sunday March 20th 11-4

Description

Italian Hand is an elegant mercantile script that reaches back to the first decade of the1600’s and was prominently used until the mid 1860’s. It is a narrow and graceful hand, made distinctive through its unusual use of shading. Often called “blob top or club top” lettering, this hand evolved out of italic hands and appears throughout history in various forms.

Although it was historically marketed as the simplest of all script hands, it can look confusing until it is demystified. The lowercase forms are very simple to learn. The capitals are varied and can take the form of Standard Roundhand or the more complex reverse shaded letterforms. Throughout The Poetic Pen class, we will simplify the capital forms while striving to perfect the shading on the lowercase forms. We will explore various European influences of the capital letters. The end goal of this class is not to copy a historic hand but to help unlock its mysteries and bring it forward into this century. Historic practitioners of this hand had a playful approach to it. The student will create their own unique expression of this elegant hand. The practice of Italian Hand will help lighten your touch as you approach other script hands. This workshop welcomes any skill level from novice to advanced.

Textured Photography with John Gronwall 1 Session | $120 ARTZ1630 | March 12th 2016, Saturday 1pm - 4pm

Description

During this workshop, I will be demonstrating and students will participate in combining digital photography prints, Golden Gel Mediums, and Golden Digital Grounds to create one-of-a-kind photo artwork prints. Combining traditional digital photographs with nontraditional finishing techniques will be used to create textured photography. We will take your prints further and give each print a painterly quality. We’ll use Golden products on various surfaces, from rice paper and fabric to aluminum, to create texture, highlights, shadows and greater depth to enhance the photographic images. Note: We will NOT be printing at this workshop.

There will be a demonstration on preparing surfaces for inkjet printing. Surface techniques: • Printing on thin papers - prepare Unryu or rice paper for inkjet printing; • Inkjet transfer to watercolor paper; • Create a skin (like a decal) to apply to non-absorbent surfaces such as Plexiglas or metal; • Textured surfaces on dimensionally stable materials (Tyvek, aluminum, and spunbound polyester); • Inkjet transfer to wood to create a fresco; • I encourage participants to bring inkjet photographs that you can transform into a textured photograph. I will also provide inkjet photograph prints for the students to experiment with.

Copperplate Calligraphy with Anne Elser Beginner to Intermediate $160 ARTZ16039| Wednesdays, March 9 – April 13, 6 – 8:30pm ARTZ16914| Wednesdays, Sep 14 – Oct 9, 6 – 8:30pm ARTZ16102 | Saturday & Sunday, Oct 29/30 , 11am – 4:30pm ARTZ16112| Wednesdays, Nov 2 – Dec 14, 6 – 8:30pm

Description This is an introductory look at Copperplate, an elegant and elastic hand frequently used for formal invitations, documents and bridal events. Completely enchanting, the dramatic thick and thins of this delicate hand will make you swoon.

During the six week course, students will be given handouts and guide sheets, learning the upper and lower case characters. We will also address spacing and layout for addressing envelopes.

Calligraphy is less about pretty handwriting, but more about DRAWING each and every letter. It’s about establishing a pacing and rhythmic motion as you write giving you a consistency of shapes and letters, and spaces in between words and lines. It is highly relaxing and meditative. Like yoga for the hands, it centers, calms, and enchants the person making as well as and the person admiring it.

Abstraction and Cold Wax Techniques with Cindy Walton 3 Sessions | $275 ARTZ1664 | August 26th – 28th, Friday 11am – 3pm, Saturday 11am – 4pm, Sunday 11am – 4pm

Cold-wax medium is wonderful for oil painters to experiment with, using non-traditional tools to achieve texture and finishes similar to encaustic but without the caustic fumes and heat. This exciting medium is gaining widespread popularity, and opens doors for oil painters to explore new techniques and surface effects.

Cindy says, “Cold-wax medium has totally changed the way I approach painting. It offers opportunities to develop layers of introspective and emotional interpretations.”

Limelight

GALLERY

BINDERS Limelight Gallery highlights local Atlanta artists through group exhibitions, special events, and community involvement.

The Limelight Gallery is a 750 square foot contemporary art gallery uniquely located within BINDERS art Supplies and Frames. Located in the heart of Buckhead, the Limelight Gallery offers an atmosphere of simple elegance with diverse energies and community support.

History The Limelight Gallery at BINDERS is located in what was one the famed Lightlight Discotheque of the early 1980’s, pioneered by enigmatic club king Peter Gatien. The Limelight lived up to its billing as the Studio 54 of the south with an infamous glass dance floor where two sand sharks could be seen swimming underneath in a massive fish tank. The club’s reputation of decadence attracted visiting celebrities such as Andy Warhol, Rod Stewart, Tina Turner, Burt Reynolds, and Grace Jones.

More recently, the Limelight serves as BINDERS Art Supplies in store art gallery representing numerous works from local groups such as the Altanta Collage Society, Atlanta Printmaker’s Studio, Atlanta Fine Arts League, Atlanta Artist’s Center, Georgia State University, Savannah College of Art & Design - Atlanta, and Fulton County Public Schools.

In addition, the Limelight functions as a satellite space for local Atlanta galleries and curators.
