Developing a Sketchbook Practice with Karen Dolmanisth combines explorations in drawing from life, expressive drawing, watercolor painting, journaling, active imagination techniques, and guided imagery work. Students will explore a variety of materials, techniques, and craft development including traditional value studies and play with collage materials.
Students will be given the opportunity to explore a range of examples of Artist’s Sketchbooks throughout the centuries of global art history, representing many stylistic approaches, to help them cultivate the importance of the sketchbook discipline for both technique development and practice.
Karen Dolmanisth is an award-winning, multi-disciplinary artist and educator whose academic studies have spanned Cooper Union, Parsons School of Design, the New School For Social Research, University of Massachusetts and Hampshire College. Dolmanisth has maintained a studio practice for over 40 years and exhibits both nationally and internationally.
As an educator, she has a special ability to create a container of encouragement and play within the classroom. Through guided mediation techniques and exercises, Karen helps students to nurture and strengthen their imagination, loosen and release restrictive inner dialogue, and learn how to access rich sources of symbolism, fantasy, and imagery from the unconscious.
