Art Supply Depo Toledo: Drawing + Painting with Walnut Ink Saturday, March 14, 2020 from 10:30am-1:00pm. Hopefully we will be able to re-schedule this soon!
I have been teaching college students, adult learners and high school students “how to see” since 2007. “I can’t draw” and “I don’t know anything about art” is the perfect place to start! Watercolor, Oil painting, drawing, and figure drawing are my areas of expertise. I bring my love for art history into the studio classroom, using images of the past to help us understand the power of visual communication and the amazing capacity of inert materials to speak to our souls.
Speaking
I love speaking to classes, small groups and congregations about my art and about how the Church has used art over the centuries. I also love giving tours of Christian art at local museums. I’ve presented in parishes, galleries, and college classrooms as well as at special events hosted by CIVA (Christians in the Visual Arts). Every presentation is accompanied by beautiful, inspirational images from the past and present.
Past topics include:
- Images of Mary (and how those images can help us understand her better)
- Symbols in religious art
- Artists as Custodians of Beauty
- Art and Incarnation
- Art and Catholic Culture
- Images of St. Thomas More
- Art and Vocation
