Cover artiSt: kUrt SolmSSeNGuest Teaching Artist
Solmssen is a return guest instructor at Gage. His bold, yet sensitive, paintings record his daily life in Puget Sound, and have been described as creating “appealing traditionalist weddings
of painterly materialism and radiant illusionism” by The New York Times. Solmssen says, “I’m inter-ested in having a narrative in the paintings, but not in storytelling . . . it’s more about something I see, a certain moment.” This summer, take advantage of a rare opportunity to learn directly from Solmssen in the Landscape Painting in Seattle weeklong workshop. See page 9 for full details.

BaCk Cover artiSt: emma NeStvoldGage Teen Artist, age 16
Last year, Nestvold explored portrait drawing through the Gage Teen Summer Workshops and says, “My artwork is an expression of emotion, usually human senti-ment. Often faces
become the focus of my work, both the faces of the people around me and the captivating faces from photos of strangers. At Gage I have been given the opportunity to work with professional artists and to refi ne my skills. I have become a better painter through my work at Gage, and look forward to continuing to develop my skills.”

e: introduction
inside out: the pleasure of painting en plein air
some of my happiest hours as an artist have been spent outdoors painting the landscape. The discomfort of working in the open air, including wind and weather, bugs and sun, are more than balanced out by the pleasure of the chase. Occasion-
ally, passers-by peek over my shoulder or stop to chat, but no one ever expresses surprise at seeing an artist painting outdoors. But not so long ago, it was rare indeed for painters to work outside of their studios.
Until the 19th century, landscape painting was strictly an indoor activity. Artists might do quick studies from nature — we have a great many beautiful examples from Baroque artists like Rembrandt and Claude Lorrain — but fi nished artworks were always studio productions. A landscape painting by Rembrandt’s contemporary Ruysdael, for example, was worked up with a level of detail and polish that was unattainable outside of the work-shop. Creating a picture indoors also freed up artists like Ruysdael to invent scenes only loosely based on existing locations, adding features like mountains or waterfalls that were non-existent in Holland.
It took 19th century poets, inventors, and anti-academics to push painters outdoors. The Romantic poets saw unspoiled nature as a source of artistic inspiration far more deserving of attention than the gray and industrial city. Enterprising manufacturers made the art stu-dio truly portable with French easels and tubes for paints, while the newly invented trains made the countryside accessible for day trips. Last but not least, anti-academic painters championed the artistic value of the plein-air sketch, which began competing in the annual Salons with the far more highly polished productions of studio painters.
Soon the freshness and energy of on-location works caught the fancy of the art-buying public, and the demand for studio landscapes all but disappeared. In the United States, many regions developed large groups of outdoor painters, most notably the Southwest, Southern California, and New England.
The Pacifi c Northwest, with its less sanguine weather and smaller artistic population, never developed as large a plein-air movement as these other regions, but a strong show could be mounted with the works of artists including Michael Stasinos, Jim Lamb, Kurt Solmssen and Mitchell Albala.
For Gage, including landscape painting as part of its curriculum was a “natural,” with the school’s strong emphasis on working from observation. Some of the fi rst workshops at Gage were outdoor classes in New Mexico. Students from all parts of the country con-verged at Ghost Ranch, where we traipsed out on dirt roads in search of the colored mesas made famous by Georgia O’Keeffe. Later we moved our summer programs to Puget Sound, using both the parks of the city and the nearby countryside as painting locales.
I’m happy to report that Gage summer programming this year includes both a return to the New Mexico of O’Keeffe — including visits to her home and museum (see p. 11) — as well as more landscape workshops in our own region than ever before (see pp. 8 & 9). Although it may be cloudy now, I can assure you that the skies will be clear by this summer. Grab your sun hat and sun screen and join us for the most enjoyable of all outdoor activities, celebrat-ing the natural world in paint.

¡Qué noche maravillosa!Friday night, March 4, Gage hosted its annual Gage Collector’s Gala — this year with a Spanish theme — in the stunning sanctuary of Saint Mark’s Cathedral. Our sold-out crowd of art collectors and Gage supporters will remember this remarkable evening for a long time — the collection of donated artworks, the sangría and Spanish cuisine, the entertain-ing classical guitarist, tenor and Flamenco dancers, and the beautiful gala venue. As one guest aptly expressed, “It feels like I’m on an opera set!”
The gala was not only beautiful, but we are also happy to announce that we raised $200,000 for the Gage Annual Fund and Youth Programs. During the evening, we celebrated the cultural contributions of Jim Kelly and his remarkable funding agency 4Culture; we watched a video about our long-running free Teen Art Studios and raised $44,000 to support youth programming at Gage; we drew the winning raffl e ticket for two on the Arte d’España tour purchased by Gage artists Meg Murch and Roger Burk; we raised a deliciously sweet $13,000 with our over-the-top Art of Dessert table; and we let everyone eat cake!
We cannot thank all of you enough! From the incredible generosity of our table captains and gala guests, to our corporate sponsors, to our volunteers, and last but certainly not least, a special thank you to our generous and talented donating artists. Apreciamos profundamente su generosidad!

GAGE CONFIDENTIALYes, you’re a Gage supporter — that’s why you are reading this catalog! You’ve taken classes at Gage, gone to our lectures and exhibitions, participated in the Gage Drawing Jam, and joined along on our art tours. But do you really qualify as a Gage Expert?
1. Last summer’s Teen Intensive students studied classical drawing and contemporary painting for fi ve straight weeks. At the end of their rigorous pre-college program, the teens: a) Gave up visual art for circus careers. b) Saw the best of their work mounted in the Corridor Gallery at SAM for a one-month show. c) Painted the walls and stairwells of Gage with a full-size replica of Michelangelo’s Sistine Chapel ceiling, done in the style of Frida Kahlo.
2. After more than a decade of enthusiastic public participation, the annual Drawing Jam at Gage gathered more than 1,200 artists of all ages to: a) Build a full-scale horse out of recycled Playdough in the Gage sculpting studio. b) Create edible art from the delectable food prepared in the Café des Artistes. c) Draw a pair of swashbuckling Seafair Pirates in the Stars of Seattle studio.3. When cartoonist Jim Woodring debuted his Nibbus Maximus at Gage, the 400 curious visitors who attended the world premiere saw:
a) A 6’ fountain pen with a 16” nib making a BIG drawing of Jim’s famous Frank character. b) A corps of attentive masseuses on hand to tend to Jim’s aching back. c) A failed science project, as predicted by pundits across the internet. 4. Gage is proud that so many of our talented teaching artists have published authoritative art instruction books. In this past year alone, Gage is thrilled to crow about: a) Gary Faigin’s new coffee-table book, Plastic Fruit is the Stillest Life of All. b) Beautiful new books on contemporary drawing by Margaret Davidson and still life painting by Michael Friel. c) Juliette Aristides’s third atelier primer for artists, How to Pronounce Diffi cult French Words. 5. With our free Teen Art Studios running every Friday night on Capitol Hill and every Saturday night in Rainier Valley, Seattle-area teens have the opportunity to explore monthly art themes from portrait sculpting to animé cartoons. The talented teens tell us they love TAS because:
a) They can’t wait to join the circus. b) They get to make fun art with friends, build a strong portfolio and eat free pizza. c) They enjoy making a human pyramid each class.
6. Gage tuition represents 75% of the operating funds of the school. The remaining 25% in contributed income comes from: a) Generous students and parents who believe Gage adds value to their lives and our community. b) Generous artists who donate their talents to the annual Gage Collector’s Gala (see opposite). c) Generous art patrons who are committed to investing in the cultural richness of the Northwest. d) All of the above, and more!
But Seriously Folks . . .Okay, you’re a Gage Expert! Since you’re such a fan of what we do, and because you want us not only to survive but to thrive, we have a modest request. As our fi scal and academic year comes to a close on June 30, we wish to present our whole community with a challenge. Please GIVE FIVE TO GAGE. Your gift can be any size that includes the number 5. Think: $5, $25, $50, $75, $150, $500, $5,000 or any gift that suits your desire to be one of our generous supporters. We’ll see that 5 and know that you care about sustaining the visual arts in our region. Thank you! Oh, and about those questions: 1b, 2c, 3a, 4b, 5b, 6d.

Interior space has been a subject for painters for centuries, whether as the primary focus, or as a background for human activity. Learn to animate paintings of interiors through the use of light (natural and artifi cial), point of view and a careful placement (or removal) of objects and details. Each day begins with discussion of dif-ferent artists’ approaches to interiors, then you make several alla prima paintings, as well as one longer-session painting on canvas or panel.Wa1109 inT/adv levels $600

Begin your weeklong exploration of the portrait by covering the basic proportions of the head — the structure being one of your most important considerations. You start with drawing in charcoal on canvas with special attention paid to composition and perceptual analysis. Once the structure is established, you fi x your drawings and begin under painting in earth tones, wiping away the highlights. Then you move into painting, where color issues are examined, including how to get the best fl esh tones and how to use warm and cool. Wa1112 inT/adv levels $625

The still life is one of the most enduring genres in painting. Start the week with a discussion of space: how to make it believ-able and the best methods to create it. Then move on to composition, such as how to use your positive and negative space relation-ships the most effectively, as well as an in-depth examination of linear and atmospheric perspective.
You begin your paintings by drawing in charcoal on your canvas and progress to under painting in warm tones, wiping away to establish the highlight. Warm and cool color relationships, light and shadow, and color transitions are all emphasized throughout the weeklong program.Wa1114 inT/adv levels $600

ameriCaN lUmiNiSm: Color, depth & dramaCharles EmersonMon-Fri 9:30am-4:30pm 8/29-9/2 [5 days]
Luminism may best be described as an Ameri-can counterpoint to European Impressionism, but with no visible brush strokes, evoking an effect of being transformed by a pervasive light that seems to turn the work into an intense and silent glow. Over time, Luminism has developed into a kind of mystic, sublime spectacle of awesome serenity or quiet power through sensual paint handling, atmospheric color effects and frequently strong contrasts of light and dark. In our own time, Luminism continues in the works of Mark Rothko and Clyfford Still in their searches for the abstract absolute with an evocation of the forces of nature and landscape history.
In this workshop, you paint in oil or acrylic to emulate and study these works and devices, including an original work, in order to adopt their use in a logical, consistent and convincing manner relevant to the art of today. Explore the ideas, techniques, and color discoveries of artists Rothko and Still along with Whistler, Church, Lane, Sargent, Parrish, Bierstadt, Inness and Diebenkorn. $15 materials fee pay-able to instructor.

drawiNgFigUre CompoSitioN For paiNterSGeoffrey LaurenceMon-Fri 9:30am-4:30pm 11/28-12/2 [5 days]
How do you inject compositional excite-ment and complex subject matter into your paintings? Historically, classical paint-ers used drawing as a preliminary means to work out their compositions and motifs. At Gage, students with strong drawing skills are invited to study under a master fi gurative realist to learn how to develop complex pictorial compositions utilizing different modes of drawing.
Each day, Laurence introduces you to a different method to make in-depth draw-ings from the model and the background around the model. Laurence also demon-strates various ways to make extended drawings from the fi gure, regardless of the length of the pose. You work in conté crayon, charcoal, ink, water media and acrylic, treating each blank page like a canvas that you enliven with your tonal compositions, fi lling the paper from edge to edge.
Your fi nal preparatory studies feature active fi gures in interiors which you cre-ate from sketching the live model, your preliminary drawings and reference pho-tographs. Your fi nal multi-fi gure composi-tion is intended to give you fertile visual material for future painting projects.Wa1119 inT/adv levels $625 (or by permission of instructor)

Painting a multi-fi gure composition in an interior space represents a challenging pictorial project, even for an advanced artist. In this workshop, you learn how to work from multiple-model poses, as well as photographic references, beginning with monochromatic drawings that develop your compositional focus. You then create color studies based on your drawings, exploring the color harmonies created through the compositional effects of hue and satura-tion. Finally, you produce an easel-sized alla prima painting of the entire scene.
You are also invited to explore the textures and color structures that furniture, drapery and props can add to your composition. Most important, you work to create a be-lievable spatial environment for your fi gure tableaux that suggests narrative content.
Demonstrations presented in this work-shop include how digital photography and Photoshop can become an integral part of your painting process, how to develop nar-rative structure through composition and color, and the progressive steps — from general to specifi c — of how to develop a complex, multi-fi gure composition.Wa1120 inT/adv levels $650
portrait paiNtiNg iN the reNaiSSaNCe traditioNGeoffrey LaurenceMon-Sat 9:30am-4:30pm 12/5-12/10 [6 days]
As a foundation for your own contemporary works, Laurence instructs you in the indirect painting techniques of the Venice and Flor-ence schools of the 15th and 16th centuries. Working from the model, each day you progress through set stages of this rigorous painting technique in order to complete one fi nished portrait by workshop’s end.
Progressing from compositional studies, you develop a careful underdrawing of your portrait on the canvas and fi ll in your portrait with a monochromatic grisaille painting to establish your tonal gradations. You then overpaint your portrait with a classic dead palette of red oxide, yellow ochre and cold black plus white before applying a warm/cool palette that pushes the value con-trasts and gives your portrait a beautiful tonal depth. The fi nal stage of your painting process includes working with a full color palette while applying glazes and scumbles, as required.
This is an advanced course suitable for anyone with an interest in classical painting techniques and intermediate painting skills.Wa1122 inT/adv levels $675

Drawing, painting and sculpting from observation form the cornerstones of Gage classes, which are open to artists of all ages and skill levels. Summer is the perfect time to try out new techniques or mediums in our shorter fi ve-week sessions. With two sessions to choose from, you have many options to explore art making.
For students seeking continuing education, Gage offers 10-week classes throughout the academic year, as well as weekend and weeklong workshops, lecture series and open and reserved studio sessions.
key to Skill levelSBeneath each class listing is a skill level. Use the below guide to determine your current level.
Beginning: You have limited or no experi-ence with the drawing, painting or sculpt-ing practice and media.
intermediate: You understand the prin-ciples of rendering light, shade and value and can draw any object, including the fi gure, with reasonable profi ciency; paint with an understanding of media applica-tion and use of color to describe form and space; sculpt with an understanding of structure, form and rhythm as well as basic techniques and tools.
advanced: You exhibit a technical mastery of drawing, painting or sculpting, and are beginning to focus on the “why” in addition to the “how.”
gage FoUNdatioN programSAll of the classes and workshops at Gage are open enrollment, meaning you can choose for yourself what to take based on your own interests and considerations. By the end of summer, you may fi nd yourself asking, “what class should I take next?” The Foundation Drawing and Painting programs were devel-oped to answer this quandary.
These programs are designed with the structure of academic training in mind: building skills through an accumulating series of classes that offer both a breadth and depth of study. We believe a “founda-tion” in art is critical to a student’s success in achieving a solid understanding of core concepts for their own studio practice.
FoUNdatioN CertiFiCateSWhile everyone is free to take classes noted as Foundation, formal enrollment in the Foundation Drawing and Painting Certifi cate Programs allows you the opportunity to earn a Foundation Certifi cate and offers distinct advantages to taking Foundation courses a la carte. The certifi cate benefi ts include quarterly guidance with our curriculum advisor, a certifi cate of completion and a solo show in the Entry Gallery at Gage. The cost for enrollment is $250 per certifi cate and you have fi ve years to complete each Foundation program.
The Foundation Drawing Program does not require a portfolio; however, enrollment into the Foundation Painting Program requires the completion of the Foundation Drawing Program or a portfolio review with our cur-riculum advisor.

Running from September through June each year, Gage Ateliers offer an intensive studio program for the serious artist-in-training. The ateliers (French for artist’s studio) are based on the traditional teaching model of the 19th-century European academies
where dedicated art students apprenticed with a master artist.
At Gage, all atelier students are given an individual studio space to complete projects inde-pendently under the guidance of their chosen instructor. Working together in group studios, atelier students enjoy the benefi t of creative infl uence and dialogue among their peers within a focused environment.
Enrollment in the atelier programs is yearly, with nine months of dedicated instruction. For the 2011-2012 school year, the ateliers run September 12, 2011 through June 22, 2012. Aristides’ and Kang-O’Higgins’ students make a 30-hour-per-week studio commitment, including working half of every day from the fi gure model. Students of Faigin work independently for a minimum of 15 hours in the studio each week, in addition to attending two weekly teaching sessions.
Atelier students receive a 10% discount on all concurrent classes and workshops: as well as free access to all Drop-In Figure Studios and any Gage Evening Lecture Series on art techniques and art history. To learn more or to receive application materials, please visit www.GageAcademy.org or call 206.343.4243.
2011-2012 Gage atelier applications are due on Tuesday, may 31, 2011.atelier scholarship applications are due friday, July 15, 2011.

The intimate studio setting enables you to devote as much time as you wish to creating paintings, with-out the limitations of model time or weather conditions. Because everyone shares the same focus, optimal conditions for creative interchange and dialogue develop. You work toward success using the still life as a tool for the development of your own artistic voice, creating original, lively pictures that express your ideas and feelings, and focus on tech-nique, rendering and composition.all levelsaT1109 11-12 annUal TUiTion: $3,975

Print logo colors
Our logo colors must appear exactly the same every time they are used. On printed materials, Wells Fargo logo colors — Wells Fargo Red and Wells Fargo Yellow — must always match their CMYK formula respectively, whether printing on coated or uncoated stock. Never substitute other colors. This is especially important since certain paper stocks and different types of media may alter the way a color looks when reproduced. For this reason, a color check while the job is on press or in final production is essential. Drawdowns are strongly recommended in all cases. For print jobs requiring spot color pages, special spot ink formulas are provided from the Brand Management Team at brand@wellsfargo.com.

Clearspace and size
Clearspace frames the logo, separating it from other elements such as headlines, text, imagery, and the outside edge of printed materials.
Always leave the minimum amount of clearspace around the logo to maximize impact. In print, the preferred clearspace is half the height or width of the logo on each side. The absolute minimum clearspace requirement is a quarter of the height or width of the logo on each side. Online, the logo clearspace requirement is at least 10 pixels.
