Self-portraits can be so much fun! Using a variety of mediums, including pencil, oil pastels, watercolor paints, and more, artists will leave this workshop with their very own artwork featuring themselves!
Explore the Splotch Monster images of Virginia-based artist Steve Loya and take a nod from the century-old parlor games of the Surrealists to invent an array of characters. Processes will include collage, experimenting with watercolor, and embellishments in ink.
The work in this exhibition attempts to change reality by reimagining perception. Ames says about the work, “If I can change my external reality, I can change my internal reality. It is based on the choices I make.”
