Class description: Art has always been taught as a craft, but there is a broad spectrum of ways of thinking about and doing art. Ber will be teaching art not as a craft but as a distinct way of thinking. We will learn how to use one’s eyes to see as an artist, holistically, and to think about and make each mark to enhance the composition. This process is a fractal, repeated over and over as the composition evolves, and will be the focus of this class. This mode of thought is how creative thinking works, how one grows as an artist, and is equally applicable whether one wants to see and interpret what is true in nature or to evolve one’s own creative vision. No prior experience will be needed. The class will be taught with demonstrations, explanations and discussions, and working one on one with students as they draw from the live model. Finished art will not be the goal of this class, developing an understanding of the art process will be.
