John Murray classes week of January 6, 2014

Welcome to my Winter 2014 (!) term classes.
I believe that the form/material  that you choose to explore is all you really need for content.
But since we're stuck here in New England in January let's look around and find a little inspiration in the
bleakness we inhabit.
Take a look at Cy Twombley's paintings and sculpture.
Look up Andy Goldsworthy's snowball/stick drawing.
I took the above picture on a walk in a field near my house on a very cold day.
Is there a personal image there?
I don't know until the materials get involved.
Please bring material to work with to the first class.
See you next week, John.

John Murray classes week of December 9, 2013

Last week's Solstice work was strong, so let's continue on that theme next week.

It is also the last week of the term, so if you have any work that you want to share or have critiqued , please bring it to class.

I enjoyed working with everyone this term and hope you found the class a positive and challenging experience.

The winter term starts January 6, 2014(!).

See you next week, John.
