When one really examines the foundation of an artistic practice, it starts with curiosity and a couple of wavy lines. The intent of this workshop series is to provide in-person instruction into various mediums with the most minimal equipment possible, so one can pursue their interest at home and without much set-up. The skills shared in these workshops will provide the confidence of a completed project and experience to move forward at home if inspired. Workshops can be attended as a stand-alone class or can be taken sequentially to build upon the previous project.
This month: Create a sculptural object by challenging traditional notions of material and shape. Explore the boundless potential of form, texture, and space by using unconventional and repurposed materials often discarded at home. We will learn to assess the advantages and limitations of different materials and how to enhance homemade adhesives to seamlessly integrate with your chosen elements.
