Drink N Draw is our monthly night devoted to drawing practices. There’s no teacher and no pretensions. We provide a theme for the evening and a little booze. Attendees provide a sketchbook and drawing utensils. Please come, and bring your friends while your at it- a theme beverage is provided (or you can BYOB) Suggested Donation: $5.

December’s Drink N Draw theme is “Technical Drawing”. There will be mechanical bits & pieces, gears & whatnots to draw from. It’s the last Drink & Draw of ’09 & there will be a spiked wintery beverage to chase away the chill- so bring some materials & we’ll bring the fun!

The Complex of All These

It’s been a long time since I posted something other than in invite to a Spudnik event or a new print made at the shop. But today I came across a video that I can’t help but share. It comes from Women’s Studio Workshop in Rosendale, NY. A fellow printer and friend of Spudnik, Jessica Vaughn, was a resident artist at Women’s Studio Workshop last year, and cued me in to the great work they are doing. A more recent resident artist Abigail Uhteg put together this stop motion animation document how she created her most recent artist book. It is entertaining, and if you aren’t an experienced etcher and book binder, educational to boot!
