Community ART
What a weekend---lots of art and travel and not much sleep. Orlando has a great arts community & I
got to share in an international making of art---sound cool & weird? Well, it was AWEsome--you'll see how
"punny" that is later. THE CITY ARTS FACTORY is featuring a kind of collaboration of 12 artists to
create art for a week & then have an exhibition of that art. ORLANDO COMMUNITY CHURCH has
held this event in a wide variety of forms, each one different. This one is Arts Worship Experience (AWE).
It features the LIMNER SOCIETY (artists who went to college together and have met yearly
to create art for a week). They juried in 7 others for this show, and then you could come for a day &
create work. I went on Friday morning but I ended up staying Saturday, too. It was such a a fantastic
environment to work in, see what others are doing and learn new tricks (techniques). The show
opens this week. Check it out if you are in ORLANDO during the next couple of weeks.
The theme is THE ART OF ENDURINGshoot images the day I was there and
combine them onto a paper canvas (I was limited to a small printer). I had lots of good images, but
I had a really hard time trying to combine them in a way that made sense. My problem was that
each image is already a composition on its own. How can you make that into one? It was a struggle.
One of my favorite images was of blue melting wax. I love texture & color---need I say more?
PHOTIP: Find an image you like & go with it.
Blessings!
