Portraits Workshop with Adam Clague
Painting portraits can be highly rewarding, but it can also be intimidating! Perhaps your past portrait attempts have looked flat and formless, or the skin colors have been “chalky” or “muddy.” Maybe you spent hours painting the perfect eye, only to realize later it was in the wrong place. If these struggles sound familiar, you are not alone.

Photographers & Friends Monthly Critiques
Summit Art hosts monthly group critique for area photographers. These critiques are open to members and non-members. Lead by Summit Art’s professional photographers, Jana Stoebick and Ramon Magee, Photographers & Friends are supporting gatherings that aim to help photographers of all levels improve image capture and post-processing through constructive critique and mentoring.
The monthly sessions are usually held on the 4th Thursday of every month at Bridge Space (old Post Office in downtown Lee’s Summit). In November and December, the session is held on the third Thursday due to the holidays.
Art Talk
It all begins with an idea. Maybe you want to launch a business. Maybe you want to turn a hobby into something more. Or maybe you have a creative project to share with the world. Whatever it is, the way you tell your story online can make all the difference.
