SUMMARY:Emerging Artists: August 28 - September 27
DESCRIPTION:Join us on Friday\, August 28 from 6 to 9 pm for the opening reception and awards! \nChicago’s Palette & Chisel Academy of Fine Arts is pleased to announce an annual art exhibition and competition dedicated to showcasing and awarding upcoming talent in the world of representational art. Our goal is to select work by emerging artists under 40 years old that demonstrates an excellent command of foundational skills while following a distinct and personal creative instinct. As our background is in classical and contemporary realism\, we will be looking for pieces that arise from these traditions. Nevertheless\, we welcome representational work that exists outside of these categories\, so long as it demonstrates sufficient technical aptitude. \nThe show’s objective is to support the vision of younger\, emerging artists. As such\, emerging artists under 40 will be represented in all areas of the exhibition\, including the pool of jurors\, judges and organizers. The idea is to create a showcase of younger artists\, by younger artists. \nThe show will be on view for one month. We will be organizing a number of events\, including an opening reception\, artist talks\, demos\, and more during this period. Our goal is for these events to transform the exhibition into more than just an art show by sparking thought\, conversation and creativity inspired by the selected works. Exhibiting artists are encouraged to participate in these events. \nThe show will run through September 27.

SUMMARY:#150: Figure Drawing with Practical Anatomy with Helen Oh
DESCRIPTION:The course explores methods of capturing the essentials of rhythm\, weight-bearing\, and balance of the figure in line and tone. Recognition of anatomical ‘landmarks’ provides the basis of forms that describe action\, tension\, and motion in the body—the essentials in constructing convincing and expressive form in drawing.\n\nEach session begins with instructor’s demo that covers parts of the skeletal or muscle system and their relationship to figure proportions. Live model poses throughout.\n\nOpen to all drawing media. Open to all levels.
