Mask and Found Object workshops in 2014!

 Mask by Jennifer W Mark

 

New Perspectives Mask Workshop

A unique way to learn to 'see' another person's viewpoint and enhance understanding of one's own and the group's unconscious bias. This workshop is an intersection of collaborative team building, psychology, storytelling, artistic expression, role-playing and humor. Participants will immerse themselves in a another person's story allowing a window into their perspective

 Midas Touch Workshop
Discover your own creativity. Open your eyes to the beauty of everyday objects and those found in nature. Use storytelling, collaboration and the ancient art of gilding.

Go with the Flow Workshop


Discover how to collaborate yet keep your individual creative spark.  Learn to use neocolors and gild.  This workshop will create a major art piece that will be donated to a non- profit.

If any of these workshops sound intriguing to you then drop me a line.   We are planning on running these three different 2 day workshops in June and July of 2014.

Having fun doing a little interior design....

Close up of our "Portlandia" conference room art.




by Open Eye Art
 Just recently we (my Open Eye Art partner, Juliet Moran) finished up 
two conference room art pieces for Capital Pacific Bank in Portland.
We took the concept of what makes Portland unique and added it in 
the form of a miniature diorama complete with tiny individuals at the bottom of each letter.

In the Portlandia Conference Room at Capital Pacific Bank
Here is a wall unit I designed for Michelle Mark's cool little studio in the Pearl in Portland Oregon.

I designed it to have led lighting back lighting the shelves.  It is a wonderful combination of black bead board, maple and thick white shelves perfectly designed to fit all of Michelle's collections .
The beauty of this piece is it can be moved in two pieces wherever she chooses to move in the future.
