League artist Siobhan Wilder’s work will be part of COCA’s Motherland show this month. Wilder paints mysterious scenes. She wants to give the viewer the sensation that there are messages all around us, and we might be able to clue into them with a little concentration. The scene above was one that she happened upon in real life: a mammoth skull in an alley.
“Indian Alley is in the Skid Row area of L.A. and part of the mural by Jaque Fragua is visible to the right, at the time it read Decolonize and Keep Calm.” – Siobhan Wilder
Siobhán Wilder’s work is influenced by Thierry De Cordier’s seascapes, Antonio López Garcia’s interiors and Charles Paget Wade’s collections at Snowshill, England. You can see more of her work on her website https://www.siobhanwilder.com/ and instagram https://www.instagram.com/blue_eyed_crow/

You know this already: When I don’t schedule creative time, I lose it. But you might not know this: When I schedule creative time with people who care about me, I’m far more likely to show up. I’m also more likely to enjoy myself. Working on projects with people makes me happy. Honestly, this is news …
If you’ve taken a drawing class, you might have learned to draw with 1 point, 2 point, and 3 point linear perspective. With this perspective method, objects that are farther away are drawn smaller, and perpendicular lines recede to common vanishing points in the distance. In inverse perspective, objects that are farther away are drawn …
Most League artists are busy people. You’re not the only one! I want to make these projects challenging but still accessible. If you miss a day, no biggie. If you miss two, join the club. If you can only do one out of 30, you still did one! Last I checked, one is way better …
