Small Art Big Ideas with Rebecca Wild
Date: March 2nd and 3rd, 2024
Time: 9:30 AM to 4:30 PM
Location: In-person at the Titan Robotics Warehouse in Redmond, WA
This idea-packed workshop will introduce you to new techniques that integrate art and words. Working on small format paper, 7” x 7”, combine drawing materials, acrylics and hand cut stencils with handwriting (no matter how readable) to create a series of richly layered, meaning-full pieces. All the user-friendly methods link together to allow endless possibility for individual expression and enable you to add greater depth to your art. You will complete the class with a stunning series that is luminous in both surface as well as personal reflection, a set of detailed instructions and a hand-built portfolio to house your “small art.”
Rebecca Wild is an artist and calligrapher from the Port Townsend, Washington. Her work pairs a love of letter forms with the luminous qualities of drawing materials and paint. She was a calligraphy and art instructor in Portland, Oregon for 25 years and now teaches workshops for art centers and guilds throughout the West. Rebecca is an enthusiastic and organized instructor whose emphasis on process and technique is infused with creativity and encouragement. She strives to help beginners feel successful and to give established artists fresh ideas. Her goal is to make the making of art accessible to everyone.
