We have a range of independent and live video art classes for grades 1 – adult! For July, we will be taking inspiration from the art and animation of Disney Studios and learning about some of the great Disney artists, tying in with our Summer Reading theme of folk tales and fairy tales, Imagine Your Story.
Each week we will email a new lesson plan that you can complete independently. You can also watch a Disney movie that will go along with your project! You can contact instructor Alexis Starke for help at any time. When you are finished, email us your project and we will share through our social media AND enter you in our weekly Art Supplies Raffle!
We will also be offering live video sessions which you can register for separately.

For the month of June, we invite you to explore the work of local artist, Robert Adzema. Of particular interest to Piermont residents will be his evocative marsh paintings. You can view his work at https://www.robertadzema.com/paintings-piermontmarsh.html
Many of Adzema’s watercolor landscapes were painted on site at the Piermont marsh, pier and waterfront over the last thirty years. These are colorful and expressive paintings which capture the light, atmosphere, energy and beauty of the Piermont waterfront.
“Plein air painting is powerful way to get to see and know a landscape. Spending 2 to 3 hours painting on location is a unique way to engage with the specific landscape before you. You get to know the light, whats growing and living there, the specifics and changeability of the weather and all that is alive in you and outside you in your dialogue with what is before you.”
“Watercolor painting is one of the most difficult painting mediums because it is unforgiving. You can not rework an area and o go back over a passage often makes it looks dull and overworked. The medium is prized for its transparency, luminosity and immediacy. It is easily transportable and ideally suited for travel ad painting on location.”
