Susan Greenstein – How to Bring Your Travels Back Home through Your Drawings (Recording)

Date recorded: Friday, November 1

Level: All

Medium: All drawing mediums - Susan will use a micron pen

Presentation Type: Demo/work-along

We frequently take many photos when we travel, whether it is a weekend trip or a longer trip to Europe or elsewhere. Often, we try to hold on to the feeling of our travels after we are back home. Join me in using some of those photos as sources to create new drawings. Working on drawings related to your travels helps to sustain and delve deeper into your travel experiences. Have some of your photos from travels available as we draw together, using the photos as a jumping- off point. I will discuss some strategies to help get started and show some of my work created this way. Have your favorite drawing materials available. I will be using a micron pen.

Free!

Susan Greenstein lives and works in Brooklyn, NY. She received her BFA at Pratt Institute where she was exposed to many ways of working and looking at the world. A deep interest in pattern has been a constant inspiration for Greenstein. At times she finds these patterns while observing flora and architecture at how they are interwoven. At other times, Greenstein finds these patterns in a more abstracted form. This can especially be seen in her recent monoprints, which are inspired by memories of patterns.
