• ISIS RODRIGUEZ - The Mexican Art Class is a bilingual course offered in both English and Spanish. Participants can select from Portrait, Full Figure, Still Life, or Landscape. The class delves into Pre-Hispanic beauty and aesthetics through a historical and cultural perspective. It begins with a brief introduction to the history of Pre-Hispanic aesthetics and beauty, followed by a short drawing or painting demonstration.

Students will then choose their preferred subject—portrait, still life, or landscape—and their medium of choice, such as drawing, pastels, watercolors, or oils. Maestra Isis will be on hand to provide assistance and address any challenges.

At the conclusion of the class, students will have created a piece of art to take home and frame, serving as a cherished memory of their experience!

Students opting for oils will need to book two days. All necessary equipment, models, photos, and art materials are provided.

• All equipment & materials included.

Maestra Isis Rodriguez is a globally acclaimed and internationally acknowledged artist, holding a B.F.A in painting. With over 20 years of teaching experience and having resided in Mexico for two decades, her art classes in San Miguel are unique in their integration of art and culture. These classes are guided by the philosophy of “nepantla,” a 16th Century Nahua term meaning “in the middle of things.” The models and reference materials used are native to the region, and students receive oral history lessons on Mexican aesthetics, beauty, and the cultural history of its people.
