The Wells Fargo logo appears in Wells Fargo red and Wells Fargo yellow. Use the black 1-color version only for one- or two-color (black plus one color) applications such as newspaper advertising or forms.

Preferred

CMYK logo

1-Color100% Black

Print logo colors

Our logo colors must appear exactly the same every time they are used. On printed materials, Wells Fargo logo colors — Wells Fargo Red and Wells Fargo Yellow — must always match their CMYK formula respectively, whether printing on coated or uncoated stock. Never substitute other colors. This is especially important since certain paper stocks and different types of media may alter the way a color looks when reproduced. For this reason, a color check while the job is on press or in final production is essential. Drawdowns are strongly recommended in all cases. For print jobs requiring spot color pages, special spot ink formulas are provided from the Brand Management Team at [email protected].

Clearspace and size

Clearspace frames the logo, separating it from other elements such as headlines, text, imagery, and the outside edge of printed materials.

Always leave the minimum amount of clearspace around the logo to maximize impact. In print, the preferred clearspace is half the height or width of the logo on each side. The absolute minimum clearspace requirement is a quarter of the height or width of the logo on each side. Online, the logo clearspace requirement is at least 10 pixels.

DRAWING INTENSIVERyan Finnerty & Jethaniel Peterka

Take your drawing skills to the next level in this seriously focused drawing intensive. Over the course of two weeks, you study with creative, profes-sional instructors who guide you through demonstrations and discussions on the subject of draftsmanship and observation. As part of your academic exploration, you also take a fi eld trip to one of Seattle’s high-profi le galleries or museums. This class is a great step for students hoping to build a portfolio or prepare for the fi ve-week Teen Intensive program!

Jethaniel Peterka introduces you to the tried and true methods of the academics of 19th century France, primarily focusing on the fi gure, photo-graphs, old masters and contemporary fi gurative artists. You learn tradi-tional drawing skills such as, gesture, blocking-in, modeling with light and shadow, anatomy, composition and more.

Ryan Finnerty focuses on the expressive aspect of drawing, while you learn about value, color, scale and analytical observation. Learn to work with new materials and to draw quickly, confi dently and sometimes strangely in this fast-paced and lively workshop.

PATTERN, SYMMETRY & TESSELATIONAllyce Wood

Explore a fantastic new way to make unique drawings and prints that have the ability to expand expo-nentially or to exist as an edition. You create patterns in the style of M.C. Escher with your own linoleum blocks, stamps, tesselation stencils and other unique drawing tech-niques. These tools give you new ways to express personal concepts and enable new art perspectives!

ABSTRACT PLASTER SCULPTUREKatrina Wolfe

Combine the intricate patterns of nature with the power of your imagi-nation by creating stylized 3-D trees, plants and strange creatures. Start-ing with fl exible wire, you build a structure that captures rhythm and movement, focusing on the overall design of your piece while draping plaster-dipped burlap strips over the armature. At the end of the week, your sculptures can be colored using shellac and paint washes.

T1113 $325


COMICS ESSENTIALSRandy Wood

Explore the cartoonist’s essential techniques: drawing and story-telling. Bring your own characters and narratives to life using the comic book form. Learn to illustrate your ideas with strong graphics to support your original text, and develop your comics from rough pencil sketches to fully inked pan-els. You might even discover fun ways to incorporate your comic characters into your sculpture class!

PLUSH SOFT SCULPTUREErin Shafkind

Invent your own 3-D soft sculpture with needle and thread, fabrics, found materials, old clothes and other items. No sewing experi-ence necessary! You learn to cre-ate objects, food, characters or whatever else your imagination can dream up. The possibilities are endless, especially the potential for a crossover between the comics you create and the sculptures you dream up.

REDUCTIVE BLOCK PRINTINGKerstin Graudins

Reduction printmaking is a fascinat-ing technique for making multicolor prints. You learn how to reduce your image area for each new color by planning a repetitive process for your carving, and how to register your images for a perfect applica-tion of your different colors. Dis-cover the rewards of using block and silkscreen printing on paper and fabric, then incorporate the prints into your altered books!

ALTERED BOOKSJulie Alpert

What will we do with all the books once everything goes digital? Alter them! Old books provide the per-fect foundation for a 3-D collage. Learn how to cut, sew, rip, glue, pull apart and put back together old books to create entirely new arti-facts. Think about books as objects, not just bundles of information, and walk away with small, very personal sculptures, and even include images from your printmaking class!

T1115 $325


DRAWING FROM OBSERVATIONMichael Lorefi ce

Investigate different ways of draw-ing that originate from the tradi-tion of direct observation learn-ing about artists in the past. By combining elements of art history, structured projects and student collaboration, you explore and merge time-honored techniques with contemporary practices to gain insight into the creative pro-cess through drawing.

FIGURATIVE CLAY SCULPTUREKatrina Wolfe

Improve your hand-eye coordina-tion by sculpting in 3-D. Working from a live model, you explore ges-ture, rhythm and artistic anatomy in clay, creating a series of short-pose sculptures and increasing the length of each pose as the week progresses. Learn clay modeling techniques beginning with a rough block-in and ultimately working toward a fi nished sculpture to fi re in the Gage kiln.

T1116 $325


FIGURE & STILL-LIFE PAINTINGTerry Furchgott

Learn to paint with the quick-drying and brilliant colors of acryl-ics, creating brief studies and several fi nished paintings while mastering the basics of accurate drawing, brushwork, color mixing and the use of a wet palette. Work-ing from inspiring set ups including fruit and fl owers, colorful ceramics, drapery and clothed models, you create bold images full of complex layers of color and dramatic con-trasts of light and shadow.

FASHION ILLUSTRATIONBritt Rynearson

Design your look by creating a fashion collection on paper. Use all types of materials, learn realistic rendering techniques, and explore the world of professional design-ers. Learn from a professional designer with a very strong back-ground in drawing and painting who encourages your own originality!

T1117 $325


PAINTING & PATINASYvette Endrijautzki

Learn how to manipulate and integrate your own drawings and paintings while working with color, washes, patinas, stains and dyes. Experiment with multimedia tech-niques including photo transfers and collage, and discover how using these materials expands the aes-thetic quality of your artwork! Then apply these methods to enhance your mixed-media assemblage piece.

MIXED MEDIA ASSEMBLAGEJethaniel Peterka

Construct and assemble elaborate shadow boxes and mixed-media pieces with power tools. Incorporat-ing your stained and painted pieces, you work with various materials and techniques like sculpting, paper mache, casting, found objects and mounting to express your vision.

CLASSICAL STUDIOTenaya Sims

Develop a strong foundation in the classical tradition of 19th-century artists. Tenaya Sims teaches you to understand, develop and imple-ment the skills needed for representational draw-ing. Work from the fi gure in the mornings and from plaster casts in individual work spaces in the afternoons. The fi rst week begins with a short lecture and slide presentation by Sims, demon-strating his body of work, inspiration and artistic background. Then you focus on the foundation skills of blocking-in the fi gure and rendering form. The second week you learn the process of working on hand-toned paper while applying the principles learned in the fi rst week. Sims’s direct teaching style is rigorous and engaging.
