Artist Pat Brentano shares an insightful list of her favorite takeaways from the Virtual Marathon with Graham Nickson & Guests.

1.The negative space around the figure stands for something.
2.The image should carry the narrative – figurative meaning and pictorial meaning.
3.There is no such thing as a background – it is a conversation between shapes.
4.Keep away from symbols by looking hard.
5. The drawing should be flat and spatial at the same time – duality of space.
6. The whole paper is crucial – to touch the edge of the paper is powerful.
7. Marks are relational – let them tell you what you see.
8. One cannot capture nature only your experience – think through your eyes.
9. Do many small compositions before starting the larger piece.
10. Look for pathways into forms – formal connections – surface geometry.
11. A line has two sides.
12. Let air and weight come into the drawing.
13. Don’t make everything busy – be subtle but dramatic.
14. Be empathetic to the experience.
15. Light or form, make a choice.
16. Don’t fall in love with details – find synergy.
17. You can work from direct observation and yet do radical things.
18. Try to create a metaphor and a presence – drawing has description and metaphor.
19. Let your imagination fill in the experience.
20. Look for poetry in drawing- have courage in your convictions.

"Rickert's paintings explore anxiety, attachment, and intimacy in routine life. Playing between representational reality and dream, forms shift into place, adding a depiction of instability, recording the anxiety of life in our time."

“My work always improves dramatically after participating in a New York Studio School Marathon.” – Artist Rebecca Jones

Read Student Perspective – Virtual Marathons by Rebecca Jones to learn about her experience in the Virtual Marathon with Graham Nickson & Guests.

"I have participated in many of the Studio School Marathons and this was my second Virtual Marathon. [...] One of my favourite parts of a Marathon are the crits. [...] Listening to Graham is a true highlight – his depth of knowledge is captivating and none of this was lost on Zoom. If anything, I was able to get more out of it as I could immediately look up the works that Graham referenced."
