About
Born and raised in Northern California to a family of painters, stained glass artists, musicians, woodworkers and book lovers, Therese spent her early years roaming backyard woods, wandering Humboldt beaches and hiking coastal mountains; all the while drawing and cataloging her adventures. Today, she continues to do the same. Her vibrant and energetic work brings to mind the organic beauty of her experiences and interactions with the natural world. The idea that everything is a product of an experience frames each work. Each piece conveys a story of movement, and ideas about color,
light, form and texture.

Attention; back to self. So much information all day long, external stimuli vying for our attention and our resources. Every day we need to process, anchor and settle the information back to our consciousness.

Thursdays, 3:30 - 5:30 pm
9/19 - 11/21/19 Ages 7-12 Artists ages 7 to 12 will explore multiple art styles and mediums to create visual art projects with a rich and dynamic learning journey. Using visual, written and movement metaphors, young artists will create a portfolio of collage, mixed media, paper mache, drawing, and painting; all while building a deeper understanding of their own unique artistic expression and their connection to their own creative potential. The program will culminate in a final project and showing, encouraging students to tell their own personal story through a “Self Portrait as Map” project. |
Thursdays, 6:30 - 8:30 pm
9/19 - 11/21/19 Ages 18 and up All levels Art, Intuition and the Creative Process In a casual and supportive environment, participants will be invited to use art, creativity and intuition as a tool for self-expression and self-exploration. An immersive program, the classes are designed for students who have a passion or even just an interest in art making. We will be experimenting with many different mediums and modalities, including drawing, painting and mixed media. We will explore the symbolic relationship and connections between these mediums, our imagery and how the symbiosis of these elements can be transformative. There will be a strong emphasis on finding one’s creative voice and developing formal and technical skills to support it. Participants will find an increase in their enthusiasm to create and continuously explore! All levels of experience are encouraged. No painting, drawing or art making experience is necessary. |
