Corks & Canvases

Thursday | April 18 | 5:30-7:30 PM

The April 18 edition of the AMA’s Corks & Canvases Paint Party will focus on Paul Cézanne’s 1890 painting Still Life with Apples.

Grab your spouse, a date, or a friend, or paint solo at the latest Corks & Canvases Paint Party at the AMA! You can enjoy a glass of wine and snacks while you get step-by-step instructions on how to recreate a famous work of art.

Cézanne’s Still Life with Apples is a striking example of the artist’s innovative approach to still life. The composition features a table with a white tablecloth adorned with a variety of apples, some whole and others sliced. Cézanne employs his characteristic geometric forms, using cylindrical shapes for the apples and creating a sense of depth through careful placement and overlapping of objects. The color palette is subdued, with earthy tones dominating the scene.

This class is for all skill levels. Even if you have never used a paintbrush, you will leave the AMA Classroom with your own original artwork, one that you will be proud to hang on the wall at your home or office. The AMA will provide paint, brushes, and a 16×20 canvas, as well as refreshments. You can bring a favorite beverage or snack if you want.

Bimonthly classes are conducted in August, October, December, February, April, and June. Don’t wait too long when registering. Space at each of our painting parties has sold out weeks ahead of the event.

COST: $30 ($25 for AMA donors).

Register HERE for the April 18 workshop.
