Drawing and Painting from the Model with Selina Trieff

We are seeking to understand and translate our 3D world to the 2D surface of the canvas or paper. As we work to accomplish this we will study and sketch from the model. The goal is to explore various ways of drawing without stressing any particular style. Any drawing or painting materials can be used. The work of known artists is utilized to illustrate a variety of issues and approaches during our sessions together.

Selina Trieff studied with Hans Hofmann in New York and Provincetown. She received a BA from Brooklyn College where she studied with Ad Reinhardt and Mark Rothko. She is represented by the Berta Walker Gallery in Provincetown, George Billis Gallery in New York, and the Ruth Bachofner Gallery in California. She has shown extensively in the U.S. and in Europe. Her work is represented in many public and private collections, and she has taught at various colleges and art schools.

I loved Selina's personal attention, overall knowledge, and competence of the subject. She accepts students at their own level.
