Course description: This class is for people who love art but have trouble finding the time, space and motivation to make it on their own. All experience levels are welcome, but please note that I do not intend to “teach” art skills. This is a space to create and talk about our art, and share ideas. It is my hope that in coming together, we can provide a supportive and creative environment to inspire great art. We can brainstorm and experiment with different projects and take our art outside if it’s nice out. We will also spend some time doing critiques to get feedback on our individual work and generate new ideas. Bring your own supplies and your favorite mix CD!

What experience do you bring to this class?

I have an art minor from Macalester College, where I took classes in drawing, painting, fibers, and sculpture. Since graduating, I have found it difficult to find space and time to make art, though I have lots of project ideas! It is my hope that creating this community of artists, with dedicated time and space to make art, will help me turn my ideas into real art, and meet great people in the process.
