Photography Courses

Jim Block Photography

Two basic digital photography courses are offered several times each year: “Digital Photography and Photoshop” and “Photography with a Digital SLR Camera”. You do not have to be a computer expert to take these courses but you should be familiar with basic operations like moving and opening files. In addition to these courses, I offer additional courses open to those who have completed one of these courses.

“Digital Photography and Photoshop” (formerly called “Introduction to Digital Photography”) is my most popular course and one most people take first. In it I cover many aspects of digital photography including obtaining, managing, improving, and printing your images. This course will help you learn how to use any version of Photoshop.

“Photography with a Digital SLR Camera” is all about taking photos and is for photographers using a digital Single Lens Reflex (SLR) camera.

These courses require that you spend considerable time on your own mastering the skills that I will explain and demonstrate during the classes. Each class will be held in my Etna home studio. There will be only 5 to 7 students in each course so that you can get lots of personal help if you need it. Each course costs $300. More information on each of these courses follows. If you would like additional information or have questions, please just ask.

Kids Classes

Fall After-school Programs at my ARTery

Afterschool Group Programs for kids
We will study one artist each week, and build on that study with our own artwork. Our first child’s art show will be over the Thanksgiving Holiday Weekend. The website will list all classes a month ahead.

Classes begin at 3:15 (when G-7 bus from GVS stops in driveway) and end at 4:30.

If you have a child at Turtle Mountain or Farm Friends, both schools will work with myARTery to get children delivered to the premises.
Space is limited. Class size will be held to no more than six children.
Children will be grouped by grade, but special exceptions will be made for multiple siblings needed to be in one class, etc. I am also naming each group by color, so that if there is a special makeup day for the kids, it will be marked by the color, on the attached calendar.

Red Group Tuesdays Grades 3-5
Yellow Group Thursdays Grades 3-5
Blue Group Wednesdays Grades K-2
Maroon Group Fridays Grades 6, 7 & 8

PRE-school class will be offered in the mornings with parent participation. Please get on the reservation list. $15.00 per class.

Fees will be charged monthly. Some months will have 4 lessons, others, 5. The fee remains the same. When there are days we are closed, we will make every effort to offer a makeup day. Scheduled makeup days are for planned absences.

Tuition is due the first day of class in each month.

Rates for Group Art Class (includes supplies) $75. per month first child - $65. for second child

Rates for Private Art Class $140. Per month, per child (discounts available)

Classes at the Dorr Mill Store

The Dorr Mill store hosts ongoing classes in rug hooking and braiding. For details, email the the teacher of the class you're interested in.

 

Jan Seavey has been hooking rugs for 32 years and has been teaching traditional rug hooking for 22 years. Jan is an Accredited member of the National Guild of Pearl K. McGown Hookcrafters, and has taught at many rug camps. Jan was trained by Master Rug Hooker, Hallie Hall, for more than twenty years, and over ten years with Master Rug Hooker, Annie Spring.

Jan took art lessons when young and went to college in Boston as an Art Major. She took courses at Massachusetts College of Art, and studied under various artists in the Boston/ Rockport Massachusetts area.

Being a painter, Jan found that rug hooking and wool dyeing offered another exciting medium to explore the possibilities of color.

Jan has been teaching rug hooking at the Dorr Mill Store for over ten years. Her classes are every other Tuesday evening and every other Friday morning.

For more information, contact Jan at risinghawk@conknet.com.

 

Sandy Luckury has been braiding rugs for over 20 years. She began braiding rugs for her home and soon discovered that it was more than just a hobby. After retiring from banking, she began to pursue her dream of starting a business.

Sandy apprenticed with master braider Barbara Fisher who developed the braiding methods she uses. The precision of this method takes all the guesswork out of braiding. Each row of the rug is counted, then butted, and attached to the rug as a complete ring. Using this method allows rugs to be made in unusual shapes, such as rectangles, hexagons and octagons. Sandy enjoys working with the color and design of a rug to customize each piece for a client’s needs.

Sandy became a juried member of the League of NH Craftsmen in the spring of 2004, and in 2007 was awarded Best in Fiber for a rectangle rug displayed in Living With Crafts at the annual Craftsman’s Fair. She is a Certified Instructor of the Braiding with Barbara rug braiding methods and teaches rug braiding at the Dorr Mill Store in Guild, NH.

Sandy lives in Bradford, NH and can be reached at sluckury@conknet.com.
