Dates: Tuesdays, February 11-25, 2025
Time: 9:30-11:30 AM Pacific Time/12:30-2:30 PM Eastern Time/5:30-7:30 PM London Time
Level: All – a good understanding of your medium required
Medium: All– Janet will work in acrylic, gouache and flashe paint

Ever taken a photo or observed a certain scene or setting and thought; this would be a great painting. A dancing figure, the stride of a walker on the street, a certain glance… expressing that idea—or gesture— will be the focus of this workshop. Whether your subject is figurative or not, this workshop will cover techniques to build your compositions—finding movement in angles, pattern, subject shifts, light and shadow. In the end hopefully your painting will reflect— through movement and gesture— the very thing that originally inspired you.

Janet will share her figurative paintings—many dance-themed, and where she finds inspiration for her subjects.

An award-winning artist, Janet Pedersen exhibits her work widely. Recently, several of her dance-themed paintings were chosen to be part of the State Department’s ‘Art in Embassies’ program, celebrating the universal joy and borderless beauty of dance. The exhibition will be on loan for three years at the Residency of the U.S. Ambassador to Poland, Mark Brzekinski. She teaches ongoing adult workshops through The Art Annex in Park Slope, Brooklyn, as well as private tutoring. She lives in the neighborhood of Park Slope in Brooklyn, NY, next to Prospect Park where she can often be found painting.
