Drawing from the Collection Series, ACP & PU Art Museum - Virtual

Thursday February 17, 2022
8:00 PM

Exploring Illustration:

This live art-making class is inspired by Jiha Moon’s Rain Catcher. Inspired by art historical sources and popular culture — including thirteenth-century Taoist painting, American cartoons, Dr. Seuss books, and fortune cookies — Moon’s color-saturated print combines motifs to create an exuberant, dreamlike composition. Rain Catcher might be seen as a landscape, an information map, or a gestural abstraction, or all three at once. In this class, we will brainstorm ideas using a prompt that can be developed into a finished illustration. We will discuss how illustration and fine art overlap in many aspects, and how they differ.
