Refreshments will be available.
After the meeting: Demo: Painting on Black Canvas
with Artist and Instructor Joan Stevens
Painting on black canvas makes colors vibrate and adds a new dimension to your painting. It lends itself to both bright or moody paintings. Working from a photograph, Joan will demonstrate her approach to this dynamic technique.
Born in Brooklyn, Joan Stevens moved to Long Island in her teens. Joan works in oils but also sketches in charcoal and pencil. She graduated from St. John’s University with a degree in Fine Art and from there went to FIT to earn a degree in illustration. She has studied with Robert Baxter, Charles Pasqualina, Howard Rose, Kim English and Peggi Kroll Roberts. Joan has exhibited her work in group and solo shows throughout Long Island and has been commissioned for portraits and landscapes. She teaches oil painting on Tuesdays and monitors life drawing on Fridays at The Art Guild.
