    “Sister Wendy Beckett has transformed public appreciation of art through her astonishing knowledge, insight and passion for painting and painters.” This set includes Sister Wendy's Story of Painting, Sister Wendy's Odyssey, and Sister Wendy's Grand Tour. Simultaneously delightful and scholarly--this is a must have for anyone interested in art history.

  • Exit Through the Gift Shop
    Exit Through the Gift Shop
    When British stencil artist Banksy traveled to Los Angeles to work, he came across obscure French filmmaker Thierry Guetta and his badly organized collection of videotapes involving the activities of graffiti artists. Inspired, Banksy assembled them with new footage to create this talked-about documentary, and the result is a mind-boggling and odd film (so strange as to be thought a hoax by some) about outsider artists and the definition of art itself.
  • The Impressionists

  • The Impressionists: The Other French Revolution
    The Impressionists: The Other French Revolution

DateMonday, November 20, 2017 at 9:00AM

(Click Image for full sized flyer)This Winter I’ll be offering new painting and art history classes in Ossining, NY! 

“What Am I Lookin’ At” is a series of six (6) classes on Modern Art. Modern Art (with a capital M and a capital A) refers specifically to the art created by members of the avant-garde during the period from 1900-1945. In this series of programs, we'll explore the seeds of Modern Art and each of the major movements. Gain a better understanding of what inspired them, how to “read” them, and where they led. Our SIX (6) classes will focus on: The Seeds of Modernism, Fauvism, Cubism, Expressionism, Dada, and Surrealism. 

You can register on a class-by-class basis ($30 each) OR register for the whole series ($150).

Classes will be held on Tuesday evenings from 7:00-9:00 PM, at the OAC Steamer Firehouse, 117 Main St., 2nd Floor, Ossining, NY. We’ll meet weekly from January 23rd through February 27th, 2018

REGISTER FOR THE WHOLE SERIES OR ON A CLASS-BY-CLASS BASIS. E-mail JILL to ask questions AND to reserve your space!

That class will meet weekly for eight (8) weeks on Sunday mornings—from 10:00AM - 12:30 PM. Classes will run from January 28th through March 18th, 2018.

“Painting with Alternative Media” is a totally liberating series of workshops focused on working largely with non-art materials. We’ll be using all kinds of cool materials and supplies. Beginners and more advanced painters are welcome. This class will meet for eight (8) weeks, on Thursday evenings from 6:30-9:00 PM. It will run from January 25th through March 15th, 2018.
