Watch watercolor demonstrations and try your hand as you paint along with Geri Gaskill. Geri, an award winning, local watercolorist will be teaching a series of watercolor classes through the end of June at the OC Center for the Arts on 94th Street bayside. Have fun while you create a painting of your own or one from the lesson’s demonstration. Classes are scheduled for Wednesdays, April 23rd, May 21st & 28th and June 4th & 25th from 10 a.m. to 1 p.m. each day. Cost per session is $20 for Art League of OC members and $25 for non members.
Gerilyn Gaskill has a passion for capturing the beauty of the Delaware coastline and Delmarva landscapes in watercolor, oil and acrylics. Her interest in art started young in kindergarten and was helped along by her great-grandfather artist, August Seiler, who also painted coastal imagery. When she’s not painting, she is teaching others to paint. Gaskill volunteers a great deal of her time educating youth in the arts.
Gaskill is the artist in residence in studio D for April – June at the Center for the Arts. The artists in residence have a room within the art center giving them a space to create and venue to display their artwork during their residency. The public can come in and interact with them and watch them create, or stop in to see their latest works. There are five artist in residence studios within the art center. The studios as well as the galleries are open daily 11 to 4.
