Floralscapes Workshop with Eileen MacArthur

Art Gallery of Guelph

Create a collective art garden with artist Eileen MacArthur!

<p>You are invited to this special one hour workshop with artist Eileen MacArthur, focusing on art-making as both an individual and collective pursuit. Participants will explore methods of representation, subjects and materials to create floral images that will then be combined into a larger image of a garden. Participants will be encouraged to consider how the images complement and contradict one another, and how each image contributes to the overall composition. This workshop is suited to beginners and experienced artists alike. All materials are provided, everyone is welcome, though registration is required.</p><p>Eileen MacArthur completed an MFA in painting at the University of Guelph in 2005 and a BFA from the Nova Scotia College of Art and Design in 2003.
