This class has been developed in honour of the late Jay Dampf, a long-time instructor at Sunbury Shores. It’s an opportunity for his previous students and others to follow his teaching methods and style, with dedicated time for their own practice and individual work, as well as time for guidance from artist and teacher Theresa MacKnight. New students will enjoy the mix of independent work and personal attention.

Students will bring their own work, either in progress, or ready to start. Shared studio time in the mornings will allow students to work on their own, with the afternoons dedicated to time with Theresa regarding questions around technique, composition, etc. as well as peer group discussion, critique and sharing of ideas.

Theresa MacKnight is a highly accomplished artist and former art teacher. She has won numerous awards and been exhibited widely across New Brunswick and elsewhere. Theresa has an extensive knowledge of working in different mediums, and teaches with patience, encouragement, and consideration of individual needs. She has spent many years involved with SSANC as instructor, student, and exhibitor. Recently retired from full time art teaching, Theresa continues to explore and expand her own art practice.
