Bill Amundson - Blurred Vision: Seeing the World Your Way

Plus Gallery artist Bill Amundson delivers a Master Class workshop for the Art Students League Denver over two days in February. This drawing workshop will explore ideas: where they come from, how to get them, and what to do with them. Artists have always drawn inspiration and motivation from a wide variety of sources—current events, politics, art history, celebrity gossip, consumerism, interstate travel and cultural taboos. Together we will examine the process of gathering ideas from disparate sources and combining them with one’s own thoughts, perspective, and personal style. With demonstrations, discussions, and review of participants’ previous work, we’ll explore drawing in a wide variety of media, including graphite, colored pencil, marker, and collage to find new sources of inspiration and new ways to express your unique vision.
