Saturday, August 1 from 9am-12pm
A still life workshop marking the first harvest of the season, and the first of a series of seasonal still life gatherings held throughout the year at each turning point.
The afternoon opens with a short look at harvest imagery across art history, the long tradition of painting abundance and the work of a season's end, from early still life painters through to Van Gogh's wheat fields. From there, each person builds their own still life vignette from what the season has given so far, stone fruit, early grain, whatever feels true to this exact moment, and spends the rest of the session painting or drawing from it.
The afternoon closes with a small, quiet moment: naming, aloud or simply in writing, what's been gathered this year so far, in work and in life.
Materials included, light refreshments provided. Held at the farmhouse table on the deck. No experience necessary.
