Watercolor and Graphic Arts Workshop [F-24-41]

This Fall we will work on art as an illustration of your life stories.Graphic Art goes back to the cave drawings of human hands, people, and animals. It is why we draw, to express how we see the world and what we are doing in our lives. Bring your watercolors and drawing materials, plus ideas for an illustration. I will also demo graphic art techniques such as block printing, and collaging with pages from old books. No experience is necessary. A detailed supply list will be sent with the registration letter when people enroll.
