Registration Deadline April 18, 2012 For Travel Sketching Workshop


Travel Sketching Workshop scheduled for April 21

Resident artist Carrie Vielle is presenting a workshop, Artistic Journaling: Maintaining a Travel Sketchbook, on Saturday, April 21 from 10 am to 3 pm at the Dahmen Barn in Uniontown.  Says Carrie, During my travels, I pick up my sketchbook before my camera every time! Sketch Journaling engages me in the moment and site much more meaningfully. I remember the sounds, the smells and the story so much more.” Carrie teaches effective, quick sketching techniques that will enable you to record your travel experiences on a more personal, creative level. Learn strategies on page composition, incorporating found objects and souvenirs, overall sketch diary formats, and much more. Carrie’s friendly, encouraging teaching style has proven effective for hundreds of students!  The cost is $72 with registrations required by April 18.  The workshop is for students aged 16 and older.  A list of materials may be found on the website calendar listing at www.artisanbarn.org.  Register online or call 509-229-3414.
