Images from other art workshop will be forthcoming. Please check back for more images.
Bookmaking
Students in this workshop are working with the Portland book artist Crystal Cawley. She is one of the artists who presented her work to the students following dinner tonight. She shared her work in the medium of paper as well as her book pieces. She discussed tonight how she is inspired by other works and mediums of art, historical artifacts, and the serendipitous process of working within the medium of paper.
Encaustics
Other students worked with George Mason in the medium of encaustics. He was the other artist who spoke to the students this evening about his work. He shared the creative process he goes through with his art which includes a process of curiosity, experimentation, and exploration. In his presentation he also showed examples of ancient encaustic portraits which first inspired him in the medium. Ellie said she liked the colors of the pigments when it came out on the paper since it came out different than the colors on the cut outs.
Cooking
Students in this group developed knife handling skills as they tackled the challenge of learning how to debone chicken and fish and how to efficiently chopping vegetables. Safety was also stressed. They made chicken stock and are in the process of making French Onion Soup. Tutu described how "cooking is a combination of art and science."

Acting
Today in the acting workshop students explored improvisation. They began their work as a group with a variety of trust building games. Trust is an essential element of group improvisation.
Block Printing
Students in block printing are carving images that will be used to print on to T-shirts with David Wolfe. Wyatt says, "it was fun to make a design for my own T-shirt that I will wear in the future."
Painting
Louis Bourne, who some students know since she was a visiting artist last year, has returned to Gould to lead the painting workshop.
