An exciting show of artworks from the Intensive figure drawing workshop with NY artist Catherine Lepp are on display at the Seattle Artist League Gallery (SALGAL) this Saturday from 6-9pm
Artists: Adena Marie Atkins Antonia Blume Cynthia Hartwig Dorothy Gleser Katie Joe Keppinger
Join us this Saturday for an exciting exhibition opening, showcasing the results of Catherine Lepp’s intensive figure drawing workshop last fall. During this workshop, participating artists delved into Giacometti’s sculptures and drawings while they were on display at the Seattle Art Museum. Pulling inspiration from their experience and from models as they posed and moved around the SAL studio, the artists experimented with a variety of sketching materials, and life-size studies and collages.
Now, we’re thrilled to present a unique collection of these studies, offering a glimpse into the creative process behind the artwork. Come witness the dedication of these artists firsthand. Join us for an unforgettable show that celebrates the beautiful process of figure drawing!
