How can I make my art better? Or, is it fine as is? As artists, we often second-guess the final outcome of our creative endeavors. In this session, Mary Louise Holt will lead an interactive discussion to provide a comprehensive critique of each participants’ artwork. Through a collaboration with all in attendance, the goal will be to share constructive ideas for improvement. From beginners to accomplished artists, all can benefit and learn new ways of thinking and approaching their art.

  • Each participant may bring one or two (maximum) pieces of art
  • One critique per artist will be guaranteed; a second critique will be given if time permits
  • ALL mediums welcome

NOTE: This session is part of a subset program series organized by the WACC Program Committee, Mary Ward and Betsy Lazow. Questions or feedback may be submitted via email to: waccprogramchair@gmail.com
