2023 Summer Workshops

Bert Yarborough Monotype and Change August 7 to August 12, 2022 Tuition: $800.00 Workshop: 9 AM - 12 PM Discipline: Printmaking OPEN TO ALL On-site Housing NOT Available - Off-site Housing Options

How can artists address the pressing and profound, social and environmental issues of the day? How can we meaningfully affect viewers with our work? We will begin by exploring one’s intention and how to embrace it without constrictions, allowing for play and openness. We will be making monotypes and expanding the possibilities of developing a body of purposeful work by employing a multitude of processes, including chine collé, collage, drawing/painting, and watercolor.
