Join us for the Drawing Marathon - VIRTUAL: In Sea

Join us for the Drawing Marathon - VIRTUAL: In Search of Fifty-One Drawings - with Graham Nickson from September 6th - 16th, 2022.
9am - 6pm ET
APPLY LINK IN BIO

"In this upcoming Marathon, we will attempt to bring TIME, as a crucial element, into our drawings: our target will be the completion of fifty-one intense drawings which incorporate speed, originality, and searching into the image. These works will be realized in different media and the overall experience will culminate in the creation of five critical drawings of longer duration and larger size. Students will learn the importance of drawing as the basis for understanding one’s experience of the world. Drawing is seen here as the most direct route to the examination of our perceptions. Unorthodox tools and exercises will be introduced to broaden the student’s drawing vocabulary." – Graham Nickson

All levels of experience are welcome!
