glencoeanchordaily.com life & arts the glencoe anchor | October 17, 2019 | 23 Local artists exhibit creative work at Takiff Center show 1 Sam Rakestraw Freelance Reporter On Sept. 27, the Glencoe Park District art programs opened a seasonal gallery of their own, showcasing some of the pieces students have been working on in class. The classes that instructor Cheryl Steiger teaches show that a person’s progress and artistic style is never truly the same as someone else’s. Art mediums included acrylic, watercolors, charcoal and a collection of ceramics. During the multiple sessions a day on Monday through Wednesday, Steiger teaches the district’s drawing courses, tailoring her attention toward each of her students based on their skill level, another aspect that varies from person to person. “We work closely with references and use existing artists as influence,” she said. The hope is that through references and channeling an artist, any artist can create one’s own artistic path. For example, Fredi Sage has been in Steiger’s classes for two years. Sage’s artistic medium is painting and she’s been interested in it since 2007. Years ago, she had painted a couple of her sister’s guitars, giving them more lively skins, such as Pink Floyd’s “Dark Side of the Moon.” Her painting that hung on the wall at the opening showed her channeling of French artist Henri Matisse’s solid colors and figures. “I particularly like drawing things that have reflections in glass,” Sage said. The ceramics and pottery display at the art exhibit at the Takiff Center. Sam Rakestraw/22nd Century Media Sage’s untitled acrylic painting has a Madelineesque woman lounging in a pretty blue dress. Bottles are a motif here. Sage said this painting is one in her “drinking series” because of all the bottles which she references for shape and size. Another community artist that emphasizes reference is Eileen Issacs. In fact, it was Steiger and the class which had turned her on to it. A portrait of a man, one of her references, hung at the opening. “I see this as my breakthrough painting,” Issacs said. “There’s an artist named Joshua Mill, known for his big head and eyes. By finding an artist to reference, I’m able to become disciplined.” Another player with faces is Diana Pasikov, though the faces she draws have already been seen by many. Pasikov has her own studio/business of creating portraits of rock stars. Present at the opening were her portraits of Billy Idol and Elton John. The Elton picture specifically was beautifully decorated with 3D shining beads, and had attention to detail with the Rocket Man’s shadow. For Pasikov, she likes drawing well-known characters due to their likeness being so iconic and unique. “Faces are all shapes,” Pasikov said on how she draws such detailed renditions. “It’s way easier to look at art as a series of shapes instead of complex parts and appendages.” Pasikov had started musician portraits like this when her son turned 13. She painted his favorites like Bruce Springsteen and Steven Taylor. Maddie Klein, meanwhile, created a charcoal face portrait that she never thought she could do. Klein is one of the younger artists in the group. She’d spent her time letting her mind wander as she sketches abstractly. It was five weeks ago, when she wanted to get into drawing faces and Steiger was eager to help. “It was a lot like Michelangelo and his sculptures. You have to find the sculpture (face) and bring it out from the marble,” Klein said. Today, Klein still looks at her charcoal portrait in amazement. One of the most precious muses for art has been botanical life. Steiger teaches a class based around drawing it, and student Susan Moss had her first watercolor painting of a branch blooming with flowers of seeds. Moss also nails the little details, such as the center of the flowers. “In the future, I’d like to move on to landscapes,” Moss added. Soon, maybe the flowers themselves will become just little details in the grand scale of the landscape. Moss often looks to the Chicago Botanic Garden in Glencoe, where she had taken calligraphy classes. The ceramics on display were practical, yet artistic, with coffee cups, fruit bowls, sugar bowls and in some cases, little sculptures. They were all made by the ceramic and pottery classes. All of these pieces, plus others, will be up through mid-December at the Takiff Center, 999 Green Bay Road, Glencoe. For more information on classes, visit www.glencoeparkdistrict.com.
