Great class visit with artists!
@sipote_de_barro explores flux states working in unfired clay, discussed moving from 2d collage into sculpture, clay in conversation with indigenous cultures

@theophilusgaffney extends language of animation into a studio installation in which letters devolve into biomorphic abbreviations, notions discovered in-between.

Also, visited Ben Voss @benkvoss , and Selena Cisneros @rocketship_ . Will post pics as I get them..

Our Art in NY class had a great time visiting Heidi Howard @heidihoward and Esteban Cabeza de Baca
#estebancabezadebaca in their studios yesterday. We heard stories wrestling giant canvases through a windy landscape, a portrait sitter stung by a bee during a painting session, portals, Picasso , fugitive pigments, the opportunities created by dying canvases beforehand.
Students were asked to look closely and later write up their memories from the studio visits, the organization of paint tables, pictures up on the wall, anecdotes the artists told. Usually we come away from these sessions with vivid impressions, new insights.
A lot of love for @paintmakersnotes and @goldenpaints
