Relate And Create

Workshops for teens to explore their artistic creativity

Relate and Create is designed to offer teens, who want to extend their art education beyond the classroom, the opportunity to explore a variety of media while studying under accomplished artists. Each of the one-week sessions will focus on a different aspect of the visual arts - drawing, sculpture, and painting.
 Week One  
Introduction  to Drawing 
Students will learn different drawing techniques using an array of materials both traditional such as charcoal, graphite, pastel and ink to non-traditional materials such as Georgia red clay. Also covered will be the many papers and other surfaces that can be used as drawing surfaces. Genre will include still life, figurative, portrait and more modern styles such as abstract and graphic novel illustration.
Basics will include light, design/composition, which surfaces and materials will render the subject matter the most convincing, tone, textures, blending, stippling and cross hatching. The importance of journal/sketchbook keeping and how to take photographs that are usable for composition will also be included.

Week Two
Introduction to Sculpture 
Students will explore three dimensions by creating sculptural forms using a multi-media process that combines paper-clay, fabric and paper-mache techniques. Inspiration will be drawn from traditional art found around the world. Students will discover that sculptural creations form Egyptian, Native American, Aboriginal, Central Asian and other cultures provide a rich treasure trove of ideas for evolving their own unique forms.

Jeff Dantzler's arrests may be the best thing that ever happened to him

THis has next to nothing to do with Oconee County with the possible exception of the location of his former office, but a former colleague of mine on the radio got popped today for four counts. Any one who has listened to 960 the Ref AM sports talk radio or heard the UGA Lady Dawgs or men's baseball team has surely heard the encyclopedic knowledge of one Jeff Dantzler. Jeff and I are pretty much diametrically opposed poltically, but today he was arrested on four counts including DUI. I hope he gets the help he needs following his incarceration.

I live a far from perfect life myself but long ago and far away I learned how and when not to drink.
