  • Creating Art Inspired by the Sea, Part II

  • This class concludes September 25 from 8:30 a.m. to 5 p.m. It is a 3-credit UMass graduate course. We are confronted with many things to look at every day, but true seeing requires an attentive frame of mind that is open to delight while welcoming the unexpected. In this course, participants will engage in observational and contemplative drawing as they come to better know artifacts and life forms of the sea from both artistic and scientific perspectives. Participants will keep sketchbook journals and learn various means for portraying both the seen and the felt world.
