Private Instructions Info

Jahn Studios is a private educational resource located in Central New Jersey to assist aspiring artists in their pursuit of representationalism. Jahn Studios is a sister program to The Waichulis Studio that was Founded by Anthony J. Waichulis. The curriculum focuses on the essential fundamentals of draftsmanship, the anatomy of form, the elements of perception, and various methods of painting. The program focuses on principles applicable to all venues of the realist endeavor including Still Life, Trompe L’oeil, Landscape, Portrait and the Figure. Traditional materials are employed throughout the training process focusing strictly on Charcoal and Oil.

The curriculum of the studio is divided into 5 sections: Governing the Material, Structures of Drawing and the Anatomy of Form, Cast Drawing, Introduction to Painting, and Advanced Painting Principles and Endgame.

On average, students can complete the apprenticeship program in three years. However, the intimate setting of the studio allows for the program to be tailored to fit individual goals. Some areas of focus may be very time sensitive (meticulous rendering techniques, etc.) and will increase the length of the program. Prospective students must be willing to attend full time and be extremely dedicated to completion of the training.

Jahn Studios has a very intimate and personal format, accepting no more than ten students at any given time. We value this format as it allows for a great deal of individual attention.

It is recommended to notify The Jahn Studios of possible interest 1 to 2 years in advance, as there is always a waiting list. All inquiries should be made to timothywjahn@yahoo.com

Instruction at Jahn Studios is provided by Timothy W Jahn. For more information on Jahn Studios including the resume of head instructor Timothy W Jahn, visit the About Timothy W Jahn Page.
