Colour, Colour, Colour with Maggie Rose


This 4-day intensive workshop is an information blast on all aspects of colour and colour mixing as they relate to painting. No matter your medium of choice (oil, acrylic, gouache, water-colour, pastel
), this information is applicable to all. You will learn to mix colours swiftly and accurately; learn to achieve both dynamic and subtle colour in your work; learn to get more out of the colours you already have and to make smart choices when adding to your paint box. This class teaches you how to juggle all colour attributes – hue, value, temperature and chroma.

Most importantly, it explains how to alter only one aspect of a colour without altering other elements. You’ll learn how to reduce, maintain or heighten chroma and learn how to keep hues consistent while they are lightened or darkened through all modelling factors. You’ll learn why an understanding of colour temperature is critical to successful work.

We’ll explore a variety of palettes from the simplest to more complex. There will be many mixing demonstrations, application examples and time for the execution of small projects and exercises to ensure that you fully understand the information. This class is suitable for the beginner to the advanced painter.

Reflections: UNB Art Centre Celebrates World Water Day 💧

March 24, 2023 @ 5:00 pm 7:00 pm

The UNB Art Centre celebrates its 12th annual World Water Day exhibit with REFLECTIONS, an exhibit of work from 28 artists in the community, opening on March 24 at 5:00 pm. Since 2011, the UNB Art Centre has recognized World Water Day with a special exhibit or event that highlights the challenges that face society and the environment.

World Water Day is an initiative of the United Nations to bring awareness to the importance of water resources and their sustainable management. Since its inception in 1993, the project has gathered momentum and participants from all over the world, each inspired to educate and activate their communities through a variety of projects.

While only 28 artists were selected to showcase their work in REFLECTIONS, 78 artists answered the call for submissions, responding to the theme by reflecting on their own relationship with water and the waterways of New Brunswick. For some, the artwork was based on an intimate relationship with a particular pond or stream, others took a more global perspective and looked at how water is used, still others examined the various states of water and its potential. This exhibit features sculpture, video, installation, photography, and painting.

REFLECTIONS will be on view from March 24 through April 28, 2023, in the East and West Galleries of the UNB Art Centre. It can also be viewed online.

The UNB Art Centre is located at Memorial Hall, 9 Bailey Drive, University of New Brunswick, Fredericton. The galleries are open 9 am – 4 pm on weekdays and during special events. Admission is free to members of the public.

Le septiĂšme pĂ©tale d’une tulipe-monstre đŸŒ·

January 25, 2023 @ 5:00 pm 7:00 pm

The granular texture of my borrowed feelings

opens me up to the subtleties of subterranean strata,

to a swamp-body groaning and gurgling from its voiceless burrow.

I interweave my umbilical guts with those of my own invention;

I drift into a vast field, imagined and sensuous.

Le septiÚme pétale d'une tulipe-monstre

How does normativity and its many forms control our bodies? How might an exploration of the somatic imaginary uncover the potential contained in the tension between different transitional and circulatory states? Le septiĂšme pĂ©tale d’une tulipe-monstre [the seventh petal of the tulip creature] encompasses three exhibitions that invite us to reflect on ways of seeing the body that challenge its normative boundaries. These exhibitions bring together practices that reclaim and reconsider hybrid and uncertain bodies, bodies that explore the possibilities of metamorphosis. Each exhibition will include new articulations of the works and the relationships between them.
