Winter Fine Art Workshops with Howard Rose

authorStaff Writer on Jan 4, 2025

Artist and teacher Howard Rose will host the last of three winter workshops at the historic Nathaniel Rogers House on Saturday, March 8. Designed to help artists fine tune their skills or beginners get more comfortable creating art, the workshop is from 10 a.m. to 1 p.m. and is titled “Framing a Scene With Your Phone.”

In this final class, Rose will teach students how to use two tools they use every day to help them make better paintings — their eyes and their smartphone. Lessons focus on how to properly frame a scene and properly take a picture of it to paint later. Bring smartphones and be ready to look at and review the pictures that students have taken of sunsets, beaches and other scenes. Weather permitting, the group will venture outside and put the lessons to work.

The cost of the workshop is $20 per person. The Bridgehampton Museum’s Nathaniel Rogers House is at 2539 Montauk Highway in Bridgehampton. For details, visit bhmuseum.org or call 631-537-1088.
