In this episode, join artist Elizabeth Karsch and her family for a workshop on artist release:
“Navigating through life’s challenges can be difficult, especially while we shelter at home, but mark-making offers a simple way to tap into and release some of the feelings we’re experiencing. Making quick pencil lines, painting smooth brush strokes, or smudging charcoal onto paper offers a physical release of our internal chatter and a bit of therapeutic relief. We might “map out” a feeling with compositional arrangements, or paint a certain color to represent someone we long for. There are no mistakes because it’s all about the process, and a funny-looking mark or an unintentional drip of paint will offer a new way to look at the situation. Paint it over, tear it up, or leave it alone to ponder its possibilities…”
Materials List:
paper, cardboard, or other flat surface to paint/draw on
any paint (watercolor, acrylic, old house paint)
colored pencils or crayons
pastels or charcoal (if available)
paintbrush
water
dishtowel or rag
