Fall Sampler: Print, Draw, Sculpt 21SAM10-1

Interested in dipping your toe into a few different art forms? Join us for this three-day sampler and learn about the Art Colony studios and classes.

October 14 – Scotch off the Roll

Participate in a unique opportunity to engage in a public art experience. Students will work collaboratively using a low-tech process of packing tape body molds, wrapping each other with the tape to create the mold, and then cutting it off to finish it. Get mummified and explore the create a public art project that will be temporarily placed in downtown Grand Marais.

October 15 – Drawing on Artists’ Point

Drawing doesn’t need to be intimidating. Not only is it the foundation to all other art forms, it can be fun! Take a walk down to Artists’ Point with Andy and explore the terrain through a series of loose drawing techniques. Through fun prompts and simple exercises students will loosen up and leave their inhibitions about what a drawing is, or should be, behind. By the end, students will have a greater knowledge of what drawing can be and how it can enrich our observations of the world.

October 16 – Textile Printing

Create your own bit of kitchen kitsch in this hands-on print class. Students will carve a simple design onto easy carve material and learn safe handling of linocut tools. Sharon will walk through the differences in ink types for different materials and everyone will create a series of handprinted and unique cotton towels.
