Tacoma Gallery has a special GUEST INSTRUCTOR for this Saturday's 2nd Saturday Life Drawing. Jay (Jerry) Gordon is a professional artist, professor of art at Lake Washington Institute of Technology, and is the Curator at Kirkland Art Center. Jay's work emphasizes tonal contrast and lighting using charcoal and graphite with ink. The attached work *Peryton *is an example of his contemporary work. Our model is Shannon Kringen <http://www.shannonkringen.com/> . Shannon is a multi-media artist and photographer has modeled extensively around the Puget Sound and at art institutions such as Gage Academy, Cornish, LWTECH, and many other local colleges and life drawing programs. Register early: The last two months have seen classes and drop-in at capacity! Class is 1-4 PM and Drop-In begins at 2. Students are responsible for bringing their own materials and they should certainly include charcoal or graphite for creating a variety of lines and tonal shading.
