Welcome If you're browsing this catalog, you're contemplating a new adventure for yourself. At Peninsula School of Art, we believe each of us the power for artistic expression and we are here to help you along your journey. For the last 55 years, PenArt has served as a community where artists and appreciators of all ages and abilities can come together to celebrate and grow through the visual arts - whether that is trying art making for the first time, acquiring new skills, or exploring new art forms. Your experience at PenArt is about both education and inspiration. We offer workshops and professional development opportunities for novice to advanced artists with some of the finest teachers in the country. Itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s not enough to be a great artist to teach at PenArt. Our faculty members must be great educators, as well. For inspiration, as a student and visitor here, youâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;ll find engaging exhibitions, Lunch Time Talks, monthly Conversations on Creativity, the nationally-recognized Door County Plein Air festival and more. These public programs will inspire and connect you with leading contemporary artists and fellow learners. The "PenArt experience" is more than acquiring new skills, it's about friendships, space for exploration, new ideas and new ways of seeing the world through art. I look forward to welcoming you to Peninsula School of Art this season!

It was great! Kyle provided the spark my painting had been missing all winter. Something in his enthusiasm, approach or technique, made me rethink my "rules" and the result is my painting has stepped up a level. So excited to get back to my studio! And the school itself is so comfortable and provides exactly what is needed! - 2019 Student

Encaustic Painting: Basics, Methods, and Materials Sarah Rehmer

Skill Levels Level 1

A Skill Level 1 workshop does not require any previous art making experience. Build a foundation in the materials, techniques, and vocabulary of the medium.

Level 2

A Skill Level 2 workshop requires basic experience and training in the medium. Improve technical skills and begin exploring content in your work.

Level 3

A Skill Level 3 workshop requires a growing level of confidence with all aspects of the medium and ability to work and solve problems independently.

Level 4

A Skill Level 4 workshop requires experience, competency, and fluency in the medium. Artistic growth is emphasized through independent work and critique.

All Levels

An All Levels workshop welcomes students of any skill and knowledge level. Instructors offer a balanced and flexible curriculum tailored to each student’s experience. .

ID: 2D2001 Jun 8 - 9 • 9 am - 4 pm Encaustic • Level 1 Members: $225 • Non-Members: $250 Concept

Designed for students new to the encaustic medium, this workshop provides a handson introduction to the materials, working methods, and safety of encaustic painting. Gain a solid technical foundation and the confidence to continue exploring encaustic beyond the workshop.

Experience

Alternating between demonstrations and working time, learn how to set up your workspace and use the materials and equipment safely, as well as explore basic painting techniques and fusing methods. If you have current pieces made in another medium, please bring for a discussion on how to translate or enhance the work with encaustic paints. All paints and tools are supplied.

Instructor

Sarah Rehmer was born and raised in the western suburbs of Chicago, where she still resides. She earned her BA in Graphic Design and Photography from Dominican University in River Forest, IL. Sarah found her love for working with pages from old books and encaustic while attending a class post-graduation at the school.

The Poetics of Mixed Media Benjamin Gardner

ID: 2D2002 Jun 8 - 9 • 9 am - 4 pm Acrylic, Drawing, Watercolor, Print/Paper/Book • All Levels Members: $230 • Non-Members: $255 Includes materials fee. Concept

The use of mixed media can broaden your mark-making abilities and expand the content of your work. Through a mixture of practical, technical, and experimental approaches to two-dimensional media, learn how to incorporate different materials into a dynamic studio practice and discuss materials’ relationship to ideas and concepts of art making.

Experience

This workshop begins with the basics of two main categories of 2D materials – graphic or drawing materials and waterbased materials. With this foundation, explore different techniques and mix them together to create a wider range of marks, applications, and aesthetics of combining media. Expect to create multiple tests of materials and techniques, as well as at least one personal, finished artwork that is discussed before the end of the final day. While not entirely necessary, some art making experience is suggested.

Instructor

Benjamin Gardner received his BFA from Millikin University and MFA from Illinois State University. He has exhibited his paintings and drawings throughout the United States, including exhibitions at Gallery Molly Krom in New York, the Spartanburg Art Museum, the Sioux City Art Center, and Heartbreaker in Peoria, IL. He is an Associate Professor of Art and Design at Drake University, and lives and works in Des Moines, IA. www.benjaminagardner.com

ID: 2D2003 Jun 10 - 13 • 9 am - 4 pm Any Painting Media • Level 3 - 4 Members: $450 • Non-Members: $490 Concept

Explore the strengths and limitations of your work in an environment where all approaches to painting and drawing are welcome. Develop new directions, build momentum, and gather feedback from a variety of perspectives.

Experience

This workshop is equally divided between discussions, working sessions, and critiques. Discussions and critiques provide guidance about materials, process, and content to help you expand your skills, see new possibilities, and set future goals. Working sessions give you hands-on practice to investigate feedback. Expect to work independently at your own pace each day. With over thirty years of teaching experience, Kristy is well versed in all painting and drawing media, and ready to give individualized technical, formal, and conceptual assistance. This workshop is geared toward students with considerable painting experience.

Experience

Each morning begins with a series of exercises dedicated to loosening up, building confidence in your individual aesthetic and mark-making, and practicing different ways of seeing.

Concept

ID: 2D2005 Jun 15 - 18 • 9 am - 4 pm Drawing • Level 3 - 4 Members: $450 • Non-Members: $490 In this workshop, focus on the dynamic tension that can occur through the interaction of two- and three-dimensional visual elements. Create low- and high-relief constructions that come off of the wall using a mix of traditional drawing media, including graphite, charcoal, and ink wash, on shaped supports made of paper.

Experience

Learn various approaches to drawing and sculpting with paper, such as marking and embossing, cutting and molding, bending and folding, and hinging and joining, that are applicable whether you are interested in creating non-objective geometric constructions or gestural assemblages that respond to a landscape or figure. You are encouraged to apply the methods to your individual creative goals. Daily presentations of contemporary artists working in corresponding ways inform your investigations.

The four days are loaded with lots of painting time, tips, techniques, and supportive group critiques to guide your next steps beyond the workshop setting. Previous pastel experience is required for this workshop.

Through interactive presentations, exercises, and more finished work, explore how shape, value, scale, and figure-ground contribute to successful compositions, practice framing when there is a lot of visual information, learn how to create the illusion of depth using linear perspective, and apply these skills to your choice of subject. Open to all paint media. Prior experience with your chosen medium is required for this workshop.

Painting with Resin Shane McAdams

ID: 2D2009 Jun 19 - 20 • 9 am - 4 pm Any Painting Media • All Levels Members: $255 • Non-Members: $280 Includes materials fee. Concept

Thermoplastic resins in art are most often seen in the realm of sculpture, such as in casting, coating, and laminating. However, when used creatively in combination with additional media, resin can be a powerful painting medium. It offers depth and layering possibilities that other media cannot; resulting in spectacular works.

Experience

This workshop explains the basic physical properties and application techniques of two types of resin – urethane and epoxy. Demonstrations cover tinting, layering, damming, and incorporating additional media. Begin by pouring a layer of epoxy resin before working on a multi-layered, abstract urethane resin painting.

Rather, look at it as a rest stop along your studio practice’s ongoing journey; a place to stop, check your direction, clear the trash out of the car, and refresh yourself for the next leg. Filled with practical information from a variety of perspectives, critiques provide you with the means to reflect on the purpose and progress of your journey. Moderated by PenArt’s Director of Education Elysia Michaelsen, Critique Group invites artists of all levels and backgrounds to come together for conversation. Reserve a 30-minute block to share your in-progress and/or finished work, ask questions of the group, and discuss what might be next. Feedback is transcribed by Elysia, not only so you can focus on the conversation at hand, but also allows you to revisit comments once you return to your home studio and continue working.

Old is New: Contemporary Artists Using Historic Techniques MAY 30 TO JULY 11 OPENING RECEPTION: FRIDAY, MAY 29, 4-6PM People have been making art for over 100,000 years. Throughout that long history, new materials and techniques were discovered, fell in and out of popularity, and were sometimes nearly forgotten. Old is New presents the work of contemporary artists using historic materials and techniques to speak to today’s culture. Margaret Muza

New Media 10101: Art and Technology AUGUST 15 TO SEPTEMBER 19 OPENING RECEPTION: FRIDAY, AUGUST 14, 4-6PM Digital technologies have been steadily seeping into all aspects of our lives. The home computer entered the market in 1977, and now we have powerful processors in our phones, health trackers on our wrists, and even sensors in our electric toothbrushes. It is no surprise that digital technologies, along with technological advances in science and industry, have found their way into our art as “new media.” New Media 10101 examines how contemporary artists use this technology to create. Emily Scheider Berens

Art by Numbers OCTOBER 3 TO NOVEMBER 28 OPENING RECEPTION: SAT, OCTOBER 10 Mathematics, rightly viewed, possesses not only truth, but supreme beauty – mathematician Bertrand Russell, 1919 A 2014 study showed that for mathematicians, looking at an elegant equation activates the same area of the brain activated when others see a beautiful painting. While this study offered scientific proof, the connection between art, beauty, and mathematics has long been evident. Art by Numbers explores this connection through work resulting from or inspired by mathematics.

will serve as a platform for artists of all ages,

The re-imagined Peninsula School of Art campus is so much more than a series of buildings. It is a manifestation of the belief that everyone deserves access to the arts - and each of us has the potential for artistic expression. It is a new way of thinking about who we are and how we engage with our world. A place for people of all ages and backgrounds to come together to celebrate and grow through the visual arts. A creative community for learning, skills development and collaboration, a platform for dialogue, a safe haven for exploration, and a gateway to new community partnerships.

With your support we will: • Develop two dedicated, state-of-the-art adult painting, drawing, printmaking and mixed media studios. • Create a digital arts and photography studio. • Provide access to print and digital technologies for our community, children and adults. • Replace two seasonal studios, with a dedicated, year-round children and teen education space that can accommodate up to four simultaneous programs. • Create direct access from the youth studios to the Guenzel Gallery. • Furnish the studios with age appropriate equipment and materials. • Refresh the exterior of main campus to allow for safe student drop off, a school bus turn around, and dedicated outdoor spaces for children, teens and families.

Cancellation Policy To Cancel a Workshop PenArt makes a substantial investment when planning a workshop. While we understand that circumstances may arise causing a change in your plans, we must adhere to a business policy. If you need to cancel your registration, PenArt must be notified by phone, and the following policies apply: • 30 days or more prior to a workshop: Full refund of tuition, less a $100 cancellation fee for adult workshops or $25 cancellation fee for youth workshops and $15 for Try It Programs. • 29 days or less prior to a workshop: No refunds for any amount. Cancellation fees reflect the cost of registration, staff, instructor contracts, material acquisitions, and other services. This policy applies to all registrants, regardless of the reason for cancelling. For your protection and should an unforeseen personal emergency arise, we HIGHLY recommended the purchase of trip insurance. Some credit cards, auto clubs, travel services, or online companies offer travel insurance for non-refundable expenses. If it’s necessary for either an instructor or PenArt to cancel a workshop, you will receive a full refund of tuition, but not other related expenses. If you drop out of a class once it has started, there are no refunds for any amount.

Transfers

Students may transfer from one workshop to another, space permitting, 30 days or more prior to the workshop for which they are currently registered. A $25 transfer fee for adult workshops, a $15 transfer fee for children and teen workshops and a $10 transfer fee for Try It workshops will apply. Registrations are not transferable to another person. There is a limit to one transfer per student per year.

Registration Information & Policies Waiting Lists

When a workshop fills, we start a waiting list. There is no charge to be on a waiting list. If space becomes available we contact the first person on the list. That person has 24 hours to register before we move on to the next.

If PenArt Cancels a Workshop

Occasionally, PenArt must cancel a workshop due to low enrollment, illness or other unforeseen circumstances. If we do, we will notify you as soon as possible. You may register for another workshop (based on availability) or receive a full refund of tuition paid. Notification of cancellation will normally occur four weeks prior to the beginning of the workshop, in rare cases however, it may be less. Peninsula School of Art is not responsible for losses incurred due to housing, personal expenses, travel or other arrangements.

If there is a Change in Workshop Instructor

Occasionally, a listed instructor is unable to participate because of a change in his or her professional schedule. If we must replace an instructor, we will do so with someone of equal or similar credentials. When time permits, we will inform all registered students.

Meals

Students have the option to purchase lunch at PenArt for $10 per day. We also provide a microwave and refrigerator for your convenience, if you choose to bring a sack lunch with you. Space is limited and we ask that students be respectful of others. â&#x20AC;˘ Peninsula School of Art takes food allergies very seriously and is not equipped to handle allergic reactions. If you have specific dietary needs or allergies, bringing your own lunches is your best option. We are not able to accommodate particular food preferences, dietary restrictions or food allergies. Please be advised Peninsula School of Art is not a nut free zone. â&#x20AC;˘ Additional visitor resources are available on our website.

Pets and Service Animals

Please leave your pets at home. Pets, other than licensed therapy/service animals such as Seeing Eye Dogs, are not allowed on the grounds, in cars in the parking lot or in PenArt buildings. There are few housing accommodations in Door County that allow pets. If you must bring your pet, ask us about an appropriate local kennel. Peninsula School of Art complies with the Americans with Disabilities Act (ADA). Any student who plans to bring a service animal must notify the Registrar at the time of registration, at which time we may ask if the service animal is required because of a disability and what work or task the service animal has been trained to do. A service animal must be under the handlerâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s control at all times, and the handler is expected to clean up after the service animal.
