Drink & Draw: December 2016–Ornamental Doodles

Deck the Halls with hand crafted ornaments this holiday season!

Spudnik Press invites you to join us for a merry celebration of doodles, folds, and paper cutting with guest artist and former Spudnik Studio Fellow, Carla Fisher Schwartz. We are stocking the studio with colored pencils, markers, pens, an array of colorful paper choices and an assortment of cut & fold ornament templates. Carla (who happens to be a paper-folding guru) will share a few folding tricks and encourage guests to elevate their doodles to elegant one-of-a-kind eco-friendly holiday ornaments.

Carla Fisher Schwartz is a visual artist and educator interested in the relationship between the mapped image and contemporary notions of exploration, virtuality, and the simulated environment. She received her MFA in Visual Arts from Washington University in St. Louis, where she was awarded the Bell Cramer Award in Printmaking, and her BA in Studio Art from the University of California, Santa Cruz.

Drink and Draw is a low-key drop-in social workshop devoted to drawing practices. There are no pretensions, no prerequisites, and newcomers are always welcome. Bring a sketchbook and basic drawing materials, and invite your friends! Drink & Draw occurs the first Wednesday of every other month and features a special theme and a guest artist. Admission to Drink & Draw is a $10 suggested donation. The event is BYOB, but we do have some wine and beer available with a donation.
