Poetry & Illustration from Found TextIn this workshop, participants will write and illustrate poetry using pages from old books. By searching through the text, we’ll look for words and phrases that seem to step forward from the rest—unexpected combinations that spark ideas, emotions, or images.
These erasure and cut-up poems don’t need to rhyme or follow traditional poetic rules. Instead, they are built from interesting word choices and thoughtful selection. Once the poem emerges, participants will create an illustration around the words, using image, color, and composition to help define what the artist is thinking or feeling.
This workshop celebrates curiosity, intuition, and the joy of working with both words and images. It’s an exciting, experimental, and very word-filled way to explore storytelling through art. Open to all ages and experience levels.
Finally in April we will write and illustrate poetry using pages from old books. Search for the words that step out form the others. Then Create an illustration around those words. These erasure or cut up type poems are fun and totally do not have to rhyme. They just have to be an interesting selection of words with an illustration that helps define what the artist is thinking. It should be an exciting, wordful workshop.
