artist co-op7 classes
Since 1995, Artist Co-op 7 classes have offered a stimulating environment for students to exchange ideas, knowledge and energies through self-exploration and creative expression. Students of all levels will be encouraged to tap their inner resources to achieve personal fulfillment and expand exhibition opportunities.
Artist Co-op 7 offers an ongoing art program at the American Jewish University (formerly the University of Judaism) as part of the Whizin Center for Continuing Education program. See below for registration and location. Three classes are currently scheduled:
painting & drawing
Fridays, 10am–12:30pm
This ongoing workshop offers a flow/grow/glow experience for all levels, from beginning to advanced students who appreciate the right-brain approach to artistic expression. Personal exploration and discovery are encouraged to unlock your unconscious creative energies.
The course begins with contour drawing and evolves to the elements of painting composition – line, shape, color, value, movement and texture. You will receive individual guidance, work at your own pace and arrive at your own style. Students may paint in either oil or acrylics. More details...

Our program participants continue to benefit from the years of interaction within this dynamic group.
