Drawing from the Inside Out

Three Saturdays in May!

May 9, 16, and 23rd from 11:00-1:00.

Express yourself freely from the inside out! We’ll journey without judgement into the land of colors, shapes, lines, and more: an experiential journey, with drawing/painting/collage exercises to deepen our understanding of visual language, our world, and ourselves. Students will learn from other artists’ work and words, and discover how self-expression in art can resonate both personally and universally.

Materials :

White paper pad: good quality drawing paper (about 60 lb or better), at least 11” x 14”

Oil pastels and/or water soluble oil pastels (with water-brush): at least 12 colors, including white, black

Conté crayon, black, and graphite bar or stick

Graphite pencil and charcoal pencil

Kneaded eraser and/or “magic” eraser

Cloth rag(s), q-tips, cotton balls, and/or tortillons for smudging, smoothing, cleaning, etc.

And, any materials you like working with, or would like to try out!

About Deb:

Deb Brod enjoys teaching art and sharing her love of art-making and its countless therapeutic effects with people of all ages. She has taught and led community-based art projects through the Ohio Arts Council, community arts centers, schools, art museums, and many other organizations. She has created artwork for commissions (including for the Taft Museum of Art and Cincinnati Children’s Hospital), and exhibited her artwork made with many media and approaches including, painting, textiles, and installation, in the midwest (including at Cincinnati’s Contemporary Arts Center), and occasionally other parts of the country and the world. In college, she studied French, art history, and fine art, culminating in a masters degree in fine art in painting. Although her work often appears abstract, or non-representational, the sources of her inspiration draw on both her inner life and the outer world, and range from nature to human nature.
