HANDCRAFTS
Emerging into the process
of the creative arts we learn about the world and the creative
forces which have made it, as well as the creative forces active
in us.
wool story board
We explore and learn to play
with color, clay, handcrafts, music, speech, drama and movement. In envisioning Anthroposophy,
Rudolf Steiner opened exciting new vistas for all forms of art.
At Rudolf Steiner College, master teachers offer art courses
in a variety of different media. All students in full-time courses
engage in one or more art form. Many courses are available for
enrollment year long. Check Events Calendar
for more information.

A multiplicity
of styles emerged in the early decades of the twentieth century
as artists sought to break through to new modes of perception
and expression in their quest for the spiritual in art. Rudolf
Steiner's research, building on Goethe's color theory, offers
the painter a way to penetrate the objective laws of color and
discover how form grows out of the inherent gesture and dynamic
interplay of colors. This entering into and working out of color
becomes a meditative and therapeutic process enlivening and
inspiring the artist.
•Painting exercises in the
veil method (layering of transparent surfaces of color) guide
this color exploration and encourage the development of perceptive
powers and individual style.
•In wet-method painting, students
are introduced to an approach that has found worldwide application
in the Waldorf school movement. It allows for an experience of
the joyful, dynamic and healing qualities of color. Motifs from
the seasons of the year, the festivals and the Waldorf curriculum
are explored.

• DRAWING
• Drawing exercises with charcoal, crayon,and chalk, practiced
out of observation and imagination, fortify the capacity to deal
with the more formative aspects of color. Exercises focus on the
four kingdoms of nature.
• Study of Goethe's color theory, selections from Rudolf
Steiner's lectures on art and color, and works by the Great Masters
establish a wide perspective from which to experience the art
of painting.
