July 25-29 at Hawthorne Valley School, Ghent NY

 In this 5 day workshop we will work with painting in relation to words. How does a painting arise from a poem? Can a poem arise from a painting? How can we create out of meaning so that our viewer experiences their own meaning. How can we bring something and yet leave our viewer free? How do we influence each other?

Working with many media including watercolor, pastel, ink, collage and poetry we will explore these questions. 

 No experience is necessary – the techniques are both exciting and forgiving.
