Painting Class for Carvers with Kelley Stadelman — in-person One six hour session on Wednesday Feb. 14. Do you need help finishing your carvings once it is completed? Kelley is a skilled painter and carver with a wealth of information about finishing. She can help you learn some techniques through painting that will give your pieces more depth and appeal. “Painting” may mean only mild shading or may lead to adding color. The techniques to achieve a beautiful, finished project can be learned at her upcoming class. The best way to learn is with brush in hand. Learn shading, highlighting, stroke work and other techniques that will help achieve a beautiful, finished carving project. Each person will attempt, practice and troubleshoot the exercises below in the class. Work sheets will be given out to take home to practice these techniques. The circles show stages of shading around the edges and highlights in the center which make a flat shape look dimensional.
