SY051 - Carnet de Voyage V: Flaner à Paris

May 5, 12, 19, 26

10am - 12:30pm

Larousse defines the word “flaner” (or “stroll”) as: “Se promener sans but, au hasard, pour le plaisir de regarder” This and the June session of “Carnet” will take advantage of longer, warmer days to get out and stroll around the city, exploring the banks of the Seine, Paris’ parks, and café terraces. Our goal will simply be the pleasure of looking and recording our impression in the form of drawings, photographs or writing.  

Receive instruction in drawing and design basics while you learn techniques in printmaking, pencil, pen, marker, watercolor, colored pencil, and collage.

Combine writing and photography with drawing and painting to create a unique visual journal, recording the events and insights of your daily life. Be inspired and informed by classroom exercises as well as suggestions for projects to do at home.

Instructor: Jan Olsson holds a Masters Degree of Fine Arts in Drawing and is an engaging teacher with many years of experience. She is also a highly skilled practicing artist of many creative art forms who exhibits internationally.
