Finding Your Artist Voice
Sheila Rice
Instructor bio [+]
Sheila Rice, a native of Boston and a lifelong maker of art, is a nonobjective artist who has a talent called synesthesia; she sees colors when she hears sounds. Rice believes her art making is a journey of self discovery made visible in her acrylic stain and gestural paintings rooted in her passion for drawing and reflecting her synesthesia. Additionally, she is a watercolorist and an experimental printmaker. Rice studied with American Impressionists (Aldro Hibbard, John Chetcuti, John Buckley) in Rockport, MA, as a child, continued painting at Harvard where she earned her undergraduate degree, and completed her training at the Boston Museum School.
What compels you to create art? Are you satisfied with what you produce, or do you feel your work lacks something you cannot quite define? These are key questions for making art that really works both for you and the viewer. We will explore the slippery territory of your inner voice struggling to make authentic art. We will have discussions about the art you and the other class members are making both in class and outside class. Acrylic paints only. A suggested supply list will be sent to all registrants. Come join a supportive group for what could be the most important journey of your life. Limited to 12.
