Shut Up and Art: Draw It Three Times and Make It Real
Details
There's a saying: "Say it three times and make it real."
Timed drawing and repetition are excellent ways to flex your artistic muscles. During this session, we'll be challenging artists to find an inspiring object somewhere in VMFA and draw it three times, giving yourself 10 minutes the first, 20 minutes the second, and 30 minutes the third.
Artists will start gathering at 10am in the VMFA cafe (we’ll have a sign) where we'll chat and socialize while waiting for everyone to arrive. At 10:30, we will gather and formally introduce our program before heading out into the galleries to draw for a solid hour. Finally, we'll reconvene at the end of the session to debrief.
For this exercise, we recommend everyone bring a way to time themselves. Additionally, since we'll be in the galleries, only graphite and digital media are allowed outside the cafe.
Not feeling inspired by the prompt? No worries! Feel free to join us anyways and create art of your own choosing. We'd love to see you and hear what you worked on with the hour.
