As a professional musician, one spends hours exploring feelings and emotions with one goal, communicating them without being able to use anything other than a particular instrument. Visual art does much the same. By understanding the means music uses to express ideas and emotions, this workshop hopes to stimulate your sense of hearing and help you connect with your drawing to a deeper level.
Lorena Cantó will lead the workshop, with Luci Eyers assisting. Participants will work with specifically designed drawing tasks throughout the day, drawing in response to music and musical techniques including: structure, harmony, texture, melody and rhythm.
