Watermarks.
6-Week Program
17th April - 26th May 2023
This was our fifth six-week online drawing program. Watermarks used drawing to
explore our relationship with water.
Our bodies are two thirds water. Seventy per cent of our blue planet’s surface is water
but we are land-based land-focused creatures.
Nine artsts explored their liquid selves through drawing. They made drawings of, or in,
or with, water. And considered water in its many states, flowing, or frozen solid or as
vaporous clouds.Drawing has its own conversation with water: washes, drips, stains,
dissolves, floods, saturation, bleeds, melts, evaporations -and watermarks. Drawing
materials can even be divided into wet or dry materials.
We would invited: Sarah Adams, Anne-Marie Atkinson, Agnes Becker, Barbara Cheney,
Hanne Husa Dale, Ilona, Joanna Leah, Carrie Stanley, Rachel Welford
to come and play in the puddles.
