Happy Little Trees: The Bob Ross
Painting Class
1 session, 6 hours
You’ve seen him before. He’s the soft spoken guy who paints happy
clouds, mountains and trees in about twenty-six television minutes,
using big, house painting-type brushes while cooing soothing “you
can do it”s to the audience. His Joy of Painting program is the most
recognized, most watched TV art show in history. Although Bob Ross
is no longer with us, a Bob Ross Certified Instructor will teach you the
magic behind painting happy little trees when you recreate one of
Bob’s masterpieces in this 6 hour class. All materials including brushes,
Bob Ross paints, and canvases will be provided. Class will take a 30
minute lunch break so please bring a packed lunch.

Photos in the Field
1 session, 5 hours
Although you may have walked a location numerous times, you’ll
suddenly notice new details about your surroundings when you’re on
a photo-walk with a camera (or phone) in your hand. In this class, we’ll
walk together at first, finding patterns, textures, reflections, shadows,
architectural details, and more. Then we’ll split up into small groups
to finish the walk and meet back at the classroom after lunch. You’ll
view your photos on the computer, select a few favorites, and watch
a slide show of what your fellow photo-walkers captured. You’ll be
amazed at the variety of subjects that everyone found! The location
for each walk will be determined by the instructor about a week
before the scheduled walk, but might include downtown Frederick, a
park, an Audubon sanctuary, or a battlefield. Please add an email will
be sent out a week prior to the class on location details. Any type of
camera is suitable for this walk, including phone cameras. Students are
responsible for providing their own transportation. Class will take a
30 minute lunch break so be sure to bring a packed lunch.
